Allie ~ Basics BACKGROUND ON CORKER-HOEVEN SUBSTITUTE AMNESTY-FIRST IMMIGRATION BILL: · Immediate amnesty before enforcement · Guts legal requirement for biometric exit-entrysystem · Millions of green cards (permanent residency) before enforcement—debunking another false claim from sponsors · No border surge. Agents aren’t required until 2021. It will never happen · No fence requirement. DHS retains discretion in the bill that preempts the call for a fence in ten years. Litigation also provides an escape hatch to never build the fence. The fence won’t happen · Legalization for gang members and convicted criminals · Amnesty for future visa overstays (in other words, a prospective amnesty for future illegal immigrants) · Guaranteed welfare access for illegal immigrants · Undermines interior enforcement, prompting ICE officers to warn: “There is no doubt that, if passed, public safety will be endangered and massive amounts of future illegal immigration—especially visa overstays—is ensured.” · Expands non-merit chain migration—less than 10 percent of future flow is merit-based · Doubles the number of guest workers and triples the number of immigrants granted lawful permanent residency— reducing wages for U.S. workers and driving up unemployment sessions.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=PressShop.NewsReleases&ContentRecord_id=789acab8-a06d-4358-4a84-e5980c7dce05&IsPrint=true
