GOP Representative Maria Salazar of Florida’s 24th Congressional District is pushing a new immigration bill that looks just like another Trojan Horse.
The so-called “Dignity Act of 2023” (the date is not a typo) increases funding for border security and border patrol agents, but at a cost. That cost? Giving 11 million illegal aliens “permanently renewable legal status.” These millions who broke the law will be able work, travel, and do just about everything else legally. Why not reward their criminality even more by just making them citizens?
Daily Caller national correspondent Henry Rogers is skeptical.
Notice something else, too: the framing and naming of the bill. Why is it that even Republicans believe they have to accept the left’s demand to put “marginalized” groups—including illegals—before America’s own interests and citizens? It’s like when alleged conservatives spend 75 percent of their speeches on “of course, we know that anti-black racism is terrible, and must be stopped” rhetoric before they’ll allow themselves to say “boo” about the real widespread and socially accepted racism (bigotry and discrimination against white people).
Some users on Twitter are not at all happy with Salazar’s bill; they’re highlighting what a massive capitulation it is:
Yep.
The idea of blanket amnesty for people who broke the law and jumped the border isn’t going over too well.
Illinois Democratic Rep. Eric Sorensen really likes the bill, though!
The “only” bipartisan solution is total surrender? User KeepTheFaith has some pretty obvious advice.
But as usual, the narrative has been set, and politicians are obviously (literally) reading from a prepared script with approved phrases. Notice anything familiar in this description of the bill from Michigan’s Hillary Scholten?
Again, it’s the “only” way forward.
