President-elect Joe Biden will ‘immediately’ send a legislative package to Congress which would provide a pathway to citizenship for some 11 million illegal immigrants, according to the Los Angeles Times, according to “immigrants rights activists in communication with the Biden-Harris transition team.”
The bill would also provide a shorter pathway to citizenship for hundreds of thousands of people living in the United States under a temporary protected status and/or who qualify under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program who were brought into the US as children.
And in what the Times calls a “significant departure from many previous immigration bills under both Democratic and Republican administrations,” the Biden plan would contain zero provisions for stepped-up immigration enforcement and security measures, according to Marielena Hincapié, executive director of the National Immigration Law Center Immigrant Justice Fund, who was informed of the details by Biden staffers.
Both Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris have said their legislative proposal would include a pathway to citizenship for millions of immigrants in the U.S. without legal status, and The Times has confirmed the bold opening salvo that the new administration plans in its first days doesn’t include the “security first” political concessions of past efforts.
Hincapié, who was co-chair of the Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force on Immigration — part of Biden’s outreach to his top primary rival, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, and his progressive base — said that Biden’s decision to not prioritize additional enforcement measures was probably a result of lessons learned from the Obama administration’s failed attempt to appease Republicans by backing tighter immigration enforcement in hopes of gaining their support for immigration relief. –Los Angeles Times
“On Inauguration Day, President-elect Biden will sign roughly a dozen actions to combat the four crises, restore humanity to our immigration system, and make government function for the people,” reads a Saturday memo by incoming Biden chief of staff, Ron Klain, who said the incoming president’s agenda included “the immigration bill he will send to Congress on his first day in office.”
If Republicans don’t stop this in the Senate, it’s GG for the GOP https://t.co/LEE5OkqqpD

Under BIden’s plan – the most sweeping and comprehensive since President Regan’s 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act granting some 3 million people legal status (after which California flipped blue), immigrants would be eligible for legal permanent residence after five years, and US citizenship after three more years.
Several immigration activists who spoke with The Times praised the reported scope and scale of the bill and expressed surprise at its ambition. A number of legislators and analysts had predicted that the new administration, at least in its first months in power, would be likely to pursue immigration measures that would stir the least controversy and could be achieved by executive actions rather than legislation. -LA Times
Will it pass?
Given the sweeping changes, Democrats are likely to face serious pushback despite holding slim majorities in both chambers of Congress – and the bill will likely face months of political debate as conservative members and immigration hard-liners push back.
Meanwhile, Texas Democratic Rep. Juaquin Castro said in a Friday call with reporters that he’s formulating a bill which would offer illegals immediate protection from deportation and a fast-tracked path to citizenship for essential workers who are undocumented.
“It’s time for essential workers to no longer be treated as disposable, but to be celebrated and welcomed as American citizens,” said Castro, adding “If your labor feeds, builds and cares for our nation, you have earned the right to stay here with full legal protection, free from fear of deportation.”
And look at this – just in time:
A Honduran migrant caravan is heading to the United States.
Arriving just in time for Joe Biden’s inauguration.
This is the future Democrats’ voted for.

US like Palestine is stolen land and the Mexicans are the real owners of half of the hapless failed banana republic. Now is also time for the 8 million displaced Palestinians to have the right of return to the lands stolen by Khazar squatters when the British backstabbers created the monstrous Zionist cancer in Palestine circa 1948.

Mature US “democracy” at play in the Congress chambers.

It looks like this defender of the empire is well-fed. Out of a perverted sense of curiosity: what do you think the full load displacement of this land battleship is? It must create an instant panic when it enters a mess hall.
Democrats usually have a tendency to outsource jobs, and to encourage investment in China or third world sweatshops, how will they manage to reconcile these with pressures from maintaining domestic living standards? Most of these will also have dual allegiances weakening national security and will present a constant drain on actual money thru outward remittances and social projects. Meanwhile, unemployment, illiteracy, and crime rates will soar while history and culture will be reinterpreted to suit the ongoing liberal policies.
Very good points, unemployment is rising as a million people signed up for unemployment benefits just his month. In my home state of California, food bank lines are getting longer as many service and even well paying tech and finance sector jobs have just disappeared. The gig economy is hit hard, along with women and part timers.
When Bolsheviks came to power, they closed the city of Saint Petersburg and established monopoly on food. So only Bolsheviks could supply and distribute food in the city. The food was distributed only for loyal population while others died of hunger. In couple of years Saint Petersburg lost more than 1 mln of population and the population structure was seriously changed. You were born and grown in environment with high living standards and consider these standards as constant, but if you ever understand that these standards are temporary, you will look on the situation from a different point of view. I mean inhabitants of Saint Petersburg in 1916 never could imagine they will die of hunger in 1918.

Returning to your first post. Do you really think that Dems are going to keep living standards for all?
Interesting comment – it is very common strategy of armed militia/factions in civil conflicts to try and control food supplies in civil conflict zones – both to force civilian obedience (control), and to price-gouge civilians (exploit) – but Bolsheviks took it to next level of violence, as means of civilian mass murder.
What you think US sanctions have done around the world? In Iraq they killed half a million children deprived of food and medicine, same in Yemen now. You Anglo’s are despicable savages.

Many are not aware Bolsheviks are from Manhattan. Financed by Schiff, Rockefeller, Morgan, and others, and sent to Russia to quietly infiltrate the Government, to gain the political power to outlaw firearms in civilian hands, and confiscate them. Among other criminal actions against the Russian population. Eventually fleeing Russia, straight back whence they came. Initiating the same process here in US Government.
The worst inhumanity of using food as weapon was the British savages stealing India’s food to feed their population during world war two. Between 10-15 million Indians were starved to death as the British racist criminals confiscated all the grains and rice and sent to UK.
Churchill’s Secret War: The British Empire and the Ravaging of India during World War II when the criminal Raj starved Indians to feed the British.

Chuchill,with all allieds got smashed by the turks in ww1,terrible man.
Yep. The most interesting moment that those who were Brits first target are defending USA/UK. I mean proud Hindu.
Your main mistake is you don’t understand what their struggle is about. They don’t care about living standards and most of their voters will be significantly disappointed of the results of Dems ruling. Dems goal is not to make Americans life better but to get to the power to start the Great Reset. https://youtu.be/9mMSb8uoMaA
The owners of US companies outsource jobs to China not political parties. The flow of US jobs headed offshore began with the Reagan administration and continues to this day regardless of what politicians say because the USA is first and foremost a capitalist country.
Politicians in both US parties are funded by the same corporations. Lobby groups representing those corporations write the bills they present to congress. Politicians will tell yu they can bring jobs back to get elected but really they can’t tell US capital where to invest and if they try they risk being cut off from the millions they get in campaign donations from corporations or their investors.
Don’t beileve that corporate interests control the USA look what just happened to DT. He misbehaved and was cut off from social media, dumped by Duetche Bank, cut off from online merchandising by shopify and is having all contracts with other businesses broken, his name taken off buildings and PGA tournements at his golf courses cancelled.
Liberals can’t do that and neither can Democrats …. capital cancelled Trump because denying the validity of the election …. which they paid for … and the attack on the capital wasn’t in their interests.
You want jobs back in the USA … work faster and cheaper than the Chinese.
Actually the process of moving Zionist Khazar owned US manufacturing offshore began in 1975 by the Nixon administration. Packing up, and shipping the newest, most modern state of the art steel mill on US West coast (Kaiser Steel Fontana CA) to Beijing China. The Zionist Khazar run US Government, began an accelerated indoctrination program already underway in US public education system. Replacing education, entirely. Expanding their brainwashing program into the Universities. Training the kids what to think, dropping the teaching of how to think. Effectively dumbing down generations of people, turning them into sheople. This destroyed US capability to research, develop, and produce world class technology, and has left US decades behind in all respects of industry. Glaringly reflected in the F-35 generation 00- fighter technology. That’s become the epitome of the “Sunk Cost Fallacy” to the world’s view.
Well done Joe, an increasingly divided and poorer Amerika is the most positive thing for the rest of the world, keep it up, maybe at the end of Joe’s mandate there might not even be a Yankeestan anymore.
Biden is doing the resistance’s job in destroying America, just sit back and enjoy the show
all will be required to receive large democrat donkey tattoo, swear allegiance to church of bill gates salvation and receive communion w covid vaccine weekly
Joseph Vissarionovich Biden (Uncle Joe) is the Sum of All conservatives Fears.
I hope Iran never gets swamped by opportunistic, violent, and low educated foreign migrants. The Iranians wouldn’t even know what hit them.
Yes it’s easy for people in countries nobody wants to move to, to criticize desirable country’s immigration policies. He wouldn’t like it if millions of sub-saharan migrants started flooding into Tehran and ran amok.
So the Democrats lost the election by 11 million votes then?
New democrat voters to create a one party state. You’ll never see another republican president of the US, I guarantee it.
If ‘legacy’ Americans don’t want to live in such a dystopia, the only option left is secession.
