Senate Democrats: Americans ‘Have Obligation’ to Give Amnesty to Foreigners

Breitbart: 

A group of Senate Democrats say American citizens “have an obligation” to give amnesty to potentially millions of foreign nationals living in the United States who they say have “earned the right” to be in the country.

After House Democrats and seven House Republicans passed an expansive amnesty to any illegal alien claiming to have arrived in the U.S. as a child, Senate Democrats are now demanding the Senate do the same.

Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Ben Cardin (D-MD), and Tim Kaine (D-VA) are urging the GOP-controlled Senate to pass their amnesty plan, which gives nearly half a million foreign nationals living in the U.S. on Temporary Protected Status (TPS) a pathway to American citizenship.

Cardin said in a statement that Americans are obligated to give foreign nationals permanent legal residency and eventually U.S. citizenship via an amnesty. According to Cardin:

These individuals have lawfully lived and worked in the U.S. as our neighbors, as they sought refuge in the U.S. We have an obligation to take action and give needed predictability and safety to people who are in an uncertain status. We need to stand up for the American values of compassion and diversitythat have made this country stronger. [Emphasis added]

Feinstein said the 440,000 foreign nationals who would receive the amnesty have “earned the right” to permanently stay in the U.S. more here

  4. So many of our elected representatives seem to represent foreigners, mostly parasitic migrants and illegals, that I wonder if the American people – the citizens- actually have anyone to represent themselves and their interests in our “representative” government.

  16. Uhhh, no. They haven’t earned shit, except a boot to the ass to help them back across the border. Doesn’t matter what they may have done or are doing, the broke the law when they illegally crossed the border to get here. They should consider it a favor that they don’t get arrested, charged, tried, convicted, and banned from ever reentering the country. Bunch of arrogant, entitled bastards.

  17. Of the 440,000 I wonder how many of them really do have “clean” records? I wonder how tough it would be to find out? How many are on or receive public assistance, committed crimes from misdemeanors to felonies, who have taken a life, disappeared from sight etc. I suspect the numbers would dismay the Democrats and be buried by the media.

  18. Show me in the Constitution where I’m obligated for anything?? If I decide to be obligated to anything, it’s to kick you off your delusional high horse anyway I have to…

  21. If we have an “Obligation” to give them asylum, don’t they then have an obligation to assimilate and become Americans? That is what we should expect, and get, or they shouldn’t come.
    This hyphenated bullshit is ruining this country.
