Old
news: Speaker Paul Ryan is pro-Amnesty. Yesterday, he had this to say:
House Speaker Paul Ryan said
Wednesday that it was “not in our nation’s interest” to expel
the roughly 800,000 young people protected from deportation by the
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
William
A. Jacobson has more on DACA / Dreamer amnesty at Legal Insurrection:
Trump is on the verge of
turning a temporary Obama policy deferring enforcement against people here
illegally into a full-blown amnesty, which may even go beyond people brought
here as children.
Amnesty is the issue on which
to oppose Trump, particularly if you support Trump generally. It will kill his
presidency, something Schumer and Pelosi correctly diagnosed. Democrats want
amnesty for all illegal immigrants and open borders, they’ll take 800,000 as
the way to open the door. And they’ll use even the slightest sellout to seek to
separate Trump from the people who elected him so as to defeat him on other
issues.
Amnesty is the gateway drug to
a failed Trump presidency.
NeverTrump Republican are
particularly ecstatic on social media today. They want nothing more than for
Trump to fail so they can proclaim “I told you so.” They thrive on being out of
power. Schumer and Pelosi are NeverTrump Republicans’ best friends right now.
When Trump was elected,
my reaction was
that there was great opportunity, and I’d support him when his policies were
good, and oppose bad policies. Amnesty is a bad policy. It goes to something
more than the rule of law, it goes to whether we have a country.
Particularly if you support
Trump and want his positive policies to succeed, you need to oppose an amnesty
sellout.
NumbersUSA
has posted several Action Alerts over the past few days. One recommended action is to let Speaker
Paul Ryan know where you stand on DACA (Dreamers) amnesty:
We're hearing from a number of
NumbersUSA activists that Speaker Ryan's voicemail is full. You can also
contact his office by filling out the contact form on his website:
