Best Podcasts on Dignidad Act Immigration Reform

“It's just a staggering number of exclusions. I mean, they really thought of everything. They thought of every possible exception they could jam into this thing to invalidate any of the so-called requirements that are being imposed supposedly on illegal aliens in this bill. All of it is tailor-made to be abused by the next Democrat administration. That's what all this is for.”

“The bill would literally give not only amnesty, but a pathway to citizenship for untold numbers of so-called dreamers. The dreamers, a term coined under the Obama administration referring to illegal aliens who were brought to this country at a younger age. The dreamers at this point are not doe-eyed six-year-olds. They're like 50 years old at this point. And so that notion is totally ridiculous.”

“This was introduced by a Republican member of Congress, and she insists to her dying breath is not a mass amnesty bill, but quite literally is a mass amnesty bill. It would allow for a pathway for millions of people who came here illegally as children to stay as permanent residents in the United States would even allow the secretary of Homeland Security to welcome back up to four million people who were deported from January 2017 on while they can reapply for dignity status from outside of the United States and be granted permanent residency.”

“But what this would do is increase the country cap from 7% to 15%. So especially immigrants from Mexico, India, China, double the number of immigrants we're taking even legally. And the whole point of it is to give them citizenship. Now, Maria Salazar dishonestly is saying right now that this would not give people citizenship. You need to read the bill.”

“"Ever since they rolled out the Dignidad Act, Maria Salazar in her 25 IQ, she's been all over social media yelling at everybody under the sun. This is not amnesty. This is not amnesty. Wake up, it's not amnesty. Because everyone's reading the bill and they can clearly see it's amnesty. You see, Maria Salazar doesn't want amnesty, except, remember, she has an IQ of 25, so she forgets the things she said on camera."”

“"This was introduced by a Republican member of Congress, and she insists to her dying breath is not a mass amnesty bill, but quite literally is a mass amnesty bill. It would allow for a pathway for millions of people who came here illegally as children to stay as permanent residents in the United States... It is bonkers insane."”

“"The division on immigration is only in Washington. Americans have settled the issue. Eighty three percent of Americans believe that we have to give some type of permanent legal permit so those people can continue working. So, you know, path to citizenship. Just let them stay, work, pay taxes."”

“"I freaking hate the GOP... If it makes it to the floor, it will pass. I can't believe it. This bill should have never been introduced... Dignity is saying you have the opportunity to self-deport and we will actually pay you to do so... shame on the Republicans for even entertaining amnesty."”

“"The so-called Dignity Act is amnesty. It gives amnesty to any illegal alien that crossed the border before 2021... How about we deliver the American Dream to, you know, Americans first, and then we can talk about helping out people from the rest of the world, right? I mean, people are struggling with now gas prices, you know, grocery prices are still too high."”

“Starting with this, that the party, which is supposed to be pro-sovereignty, pro-border, often is not. And that's why Maria Salazar, a Republican, has introduced an amnesty bill, a bill that a number of other Republicans have already signed on to. It's an amnesty bill called the Dignity Act. And that name is already bad enough because the dignity alluded to in the name of the bill is for the illegal aliens, not for us, not for Americans.”

“"There are 20 Republicans led by Salazar, Maria Salazar and Mike Lawler, who are basically passing off this Dignity Act, which should be called the SAW Act for Screw All American Workers. That's what it does. It screws low wage workers with mass amnesty. More than 10 million illegal aliens would get amnesty and then their families would start coming in."”

“It's just insane. We actually won an election on saying we're going to enforce the border, we're going to do deportations, and every single time Congress comes up, they're like cockroaches or something, and they just come out and say actually what the people wanted was mass amnesty. Yeah, it's the exact opposite. And what I've realized from this is that there will always be a push. It doesn't matter how much the base wants. The moneyed interest in ag, hospitality, other sectors are going to continue pushing for amnesty because they want cheap labor.”

“"The Dignity Act as designed would provide amnesty to all of the illegal aliens who entered the country prior to Joe Biden taking the presidency... So essentially what the Dignity Act does is it provides legal status to every illegal alien who has entered the country in the last 40 years."”

“We need to take action and pass legislation that will unequivocally allow these young men and women to stay in the only home, in the only country they've known. In the past, I've supported a number of bills that would have allowed these individuals to remain in the United States without fear of a court decision hanging in the balance. But each time, partisan disagreements have prevented us from turning anything into law.”
