Amy new bill won't force Biden to comply. Any new bill might be used to force any future republican to allow illegal immigration that should not be permitted.
It is a terrible bill and an awful deal that probably makes things worse.
Sadly turning it down allows the Dems/Libs to paint the Republicans as the problem and blocking a solution.
Very true
Tired of seeing the bias of "they won't pass this amazing deal" but won't show any details to it because they know no body but the most far left wants to institutionalize illegal immigration
That is why the republicans need to call this crap bill exactly what it is..,, Mass amnesty. But hard to do that when their Senate leadership is pushing it.
Oklahoma Republican Party Chairman John Bennett is backing a primary challenger to U.S. Sen. James Lankford and has publicly criticized other prominent elected Republicans.
Bennett said he is not backing Lankford's primary opponent in his capacity as state GOP chairman, but it's nearly unheard of for any party leader to get involved in primary contests, let alone to oppose an incumbent.
In response to questions from The Oklahoman, Bennett defended his support for U.S. Senate candidate Jackson Lahmeyer, and said grassroots Republicans elected him to clean house within the party.
"James Lankford is Strong on the Border, Tough on Crime, and Very Smart on the Economy. He is fighting to Stop Inflation, Defend our under siege Second Amendment, and Restore American Energy Independence, just as we had it during the Trump Administration where we would soon be, in fact, Energy Dominant.
"Sadly, that went up in dust with the Biden Administration but James will help us get it back. It is my great honor to give James Lankford my Complete and Total Endorsement!"
My question for every "moderate" is why do you all give every benefit of the doubt to the democrats while you all completely crap all over the republicans?

No deal.
Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner. It would codify a minimum level of illegal immigration.
This should be a nonstarter for any real Republican. Any of them that side with Democrats on this transparent pile of garbage need to be run out of town.
All Biden has to do is rescind all the EOs he implemented on Day One of his administration regarding illegal crossings and things would improve overnight. No new laws needed.

no bill out yet he says people are just functioning off of internet rumors
This is what I heard him say on Hewitt's show.
If you want to shut people up, then produce the bill and stop playing games.
To do a deal on the border, you need two parties willing to operate in good faith.
When you have a President on the other side of this agreement who removed the border protections of his predecessor in favor of an open border, tacitly refusing to enforce immigration law, then how on earth can you trust him to keep his end of any deal he signs? What mechanism in this bill, beyond the total and complete control and manipulation of the White House, forces this President to actually do his job and stop illegal immigration and secure the border?
Of course, a President who can be trusted not to be trusted may very well be a feature to the GOP-E Senators involved in this sellout deal.

I'm beginning to think moderates are the mythical unicorn. They claim to be moderate when their selection has been a proverbual **** show.
Biden had majority for 2 years and created this mess. Now he wants to blame that the republicans are too partisan.
Why can't they just release the framework/outline of the bill? Lankford keeps doing press interviews whining about internet rumors, then release a framework. There's a reason these are closed door negotiations...

Because there's no such thing as a moderate. There are conservatives, leftists, and liars.

Democrats want illegal immigration enshrined into law so it can't be stopped by any future GOP president.
All poopy pants has to do is enforce the laws we have. Tonight!
That is far and away the biggest rub about this "plan". It's being pushed as a way for Dementia Joe to close the border, but he already can. It also doesn't STOP #$&@ - it just slows down the leak.
Being in TexAgs jail changes a man……..no, not really
