Fake ID is nothing new. Most people who don't want to be identified aren't going the asylum route to get in.    

And how does that work again?

why did CBP endorse it?

what did Lankford say that you disagree with? 

  Because it gave them billions more to grow....every govt agency loves that.  

I read up on the legislation dude.   It was a shit sandwich.  

Lets not forget it was also tied to $118 billion in foreign aide spending.   Money we don't have.

“House Republicans oppose the Senate immigration bill because it fails in every policy area needed to secure our border and would actually incentivize more illegal immigration.

“Among its many flaws, the bill expands work authorizations for illegal aliens while failing to include critical asylum reforms. Even worse, its language allowing illegals to be ‘released from physical custody’ would effectively endorse the Biden ‘catch and release’ policy.

“The so-called ‘shutdown’ authority in the bill is anything but, riddled with loopholes that grant far too much discretionary authority to Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas – who has proven he will exploit every measure possible, in defiance of the law, to keep the border open.

“The bill also fails to adequately stop the President’s abuse of parole authority and provides for taxpayer funds to fly and house illegal immigrants in hotels through the FEMA Shelter and Services Program.

“Because President Biden has refused to utilize his broad executive authority to end the border catastrophe that he has created, the House led nine months ago with the passage of the Secure the Border Act (H.R. 2). That bill contains the necessary components to actually stem the flow of illegals and end the present crisis. The Senate must take it up immediately.

“America’s sovereignty is at stake.

“Any consideration of this Senate bill in its current form is a waste of time. It is DEAD on arrival in the House. We encourage the U.S. Senate to reject it.”

Dude I fucking listened to him when the bill was introduced.   He wasn't being completely honest about the entire bill.

The $118 billion (money we don't have) tied to foreign aide was a non-starter for me to begin with.   Don't you claim to be the deficit hawk on here.    

[Crnr2Crnr]

it was doing SOMETHING... 

that's why it became DOA during an election year 

if Trump loses and the R's get clobbered again, we might get NOTHING 

maybe that's what the Republicans actually want?

  Ah yes you're from the just do something crowd no matter how shitty the bill is.   

 

Expulsion authority trigger

The key provision of the bill would allow the president to expel immigrants regardless of the viability of their legal rights to remain in the United States if average daily encounters at the southwest border hit 4,000 in a week (about 120,000 in a month) or 8,500 in any single day. This includes people who apply to enter legally at ports of entry.

Since March 2021, the daily average for a month has always exceeded 4,000. Expulsions would be mandatory if the daily average for a week exceeded 5,000, or 8,500 in a single day, and expulsions would have to continue until the rate declined for two weeks to a daily average of less than 3,000 (a pace of 90,000 for a month) if the 4,000 threshold was used or 3,750 (112,500 for a month) if the 5,000 threshold was used. Under this provision, expulsions would have been mandatory almost continuously since March 2021.
