With Obama considering whether to act to ease deportations, nearly two dozen Republican Senators today fired off a letter putting him on notice: Any such move would constitute an abdication of the responsibility to secure the border, an abandonment of the rule of law, and a threat to the country’s constitutional order.

The GOP position on immigration: Get out

We'll see if the Repubs have the balls to say NO to amnesty for illegal aliens.

This should say "The GOP position on *illegal* immigration: Get out." Funny how they always try and blur the line between legal and illegal immigrants.

What part of ILLEGAL do they not understand.
To all those that say they should be allowed to stay, Go to their country and enter it ILLEGALLY and see how you are dealt with, you will be arrested, thrown in jail and later deported. You will not get a drivers license, you will not get food stamps, or health care, or welfare. You will be treated as what you are, a criminal who broke the law.

We have immigration laws on the books, ENFORCE THEM TO THE LETTER OF THE LAW.
As far as amnesty, NO, They broke the law, if found, they should be deported, if found that they have been on welfare, food stamps when they were not entitled, then they should be charged with those crimes as well.
To those that cry because deporting might break up a family, how is that any different then sending someone off to prison, does that no break up a family ? If they don't want their family broken up, then maybe they should not have broke the law.

It's not a GOP party position, it's the position of some GOP Senators in the U.S. Senate. Big difference. And they can't have it both ways: Obama is under heavy criticism from immigration reform supporters because of the high rate of deportations. The GOP Senators ignore the focus on border crosser detentions/deportations when that's what they demanded previously, because they want the administration to increase activities further into the interior of the country. Fine, I'm with them on that point. However, the GOP won't support increased funding for government to go after more people. The President is damned if he doesn't, damned if he doesn't. All this is is political posturing by a relatively small group of GOP elected officials. Want better enforcement: pay the price ... or shut up. That's my advice to the GOP Senators.

I don't see why they shouldn't. They won't get any votes from the illegal end and their business constituents aren't going to turn around and vote Democrat any time soon, LOL! An amnesty bill would be very, very dangerous to the Republican party, with the only benefit being a few appeased special interests. You're talking about legalizing 10+ million mostly Democrat voters.

Yes, it is. It is being cloaked under the term "reform". Evidently they think the American public are idiots.

We got to understand that Obama's brand of Social Justice and Obama administration power grabs are taking its toll. It would seem the regular Americans are tired of technical trickery by the DNC and the President.
Further the over reaches of the Federal Gov.
To Not surprise; Bill Maher (Flipping thru the channels) is even saying that Conservatives & Tea Party is Demonizing the President and the Federal Government. Image that?

The point is the House Republicans and the Senate Republicans need to come up with a comprehensive plan. That is all they need to do. Its up to the Senate Majority (Reid to table it or go to conference. then the final signature is the Presidents desk. We all know it will not go that far.

It is my humble opinion the laws are just fine and far for the would be visitor and or the Would be American future citizen. We need to just enforce the current laws and have tighter boarder security. Of course Employer mandates and e- Verify is a good part of the enforcement package.

For the 12m that are here is these folks should not be granted citizenship period and not receive any state and federal help or service period. They choose to break US Law. Short of deportation al all 12 m, grant them a work permit and pay back taxes period to continue to stay. But have to return to country of origin and check in with the Start Department once every quarter to verify address.

Again President Obama is failing to oath of Office to up hold the laws of the land and is technically is a candidate for Impeachment . President Obama and the DNC measures everything to political gain, not what is best for America.
