Senate Republicans Send Clear Message about Immigration Reform: They Don’t Want It

LatinaLista — With only a five vote difference against cloture in today’s final vote, the Senate has failed in not only coming together to reach a consensus to stop the grandstanding and roadblocking of what has been called The Grand Compromise, better known as the immigration reform bill, but they have prolonged the tremors rippling across this nation, to the point that it’s only a matter of time before the fissures that have already developed will run so deep and so wide that there won’t be any way to bridge the opposing sides.


Because of this evening’s vote, the Senate Majority Leader has pulled the immigration bill from the floor.
What does that mean?

It means that for all the families who are hoping they can stop looking over their shoulders or nervously wondering if today is the day mami or papi or their son or daughter won’t return home from work or waiting to finally tell mijo or mija that they can fill out the paperwork to go to college — the wait and wondering, the anxiety and the frustration, the desperation and the anger — will continue.
The Senate Majority Leader doesn’t know when he’ll bring the bill back to the floor. Probably after enough time has gone by when hurt feelings are forgotten and everyone is in a better mood to see things in a more rational manner.
Yet, he didn’t mince words when he blamed a core group of Republican Senators who no matter what Democrats tried to do to appease them— they were determined to see the bill fail.
And it is disappointing that there exists within the chambers of this country’s government such juvenile behavior that not even an attempt to reach a compromise was made.
If there was one Congressional chamber that gave us any hope that SOMETHING could have been passed it would have been the Senate.
In honesty, nobody is holding their breath that the House can pass something on their own. At the very least, some probably hoped that they would feel shamed by the Senate’s swift action to come up with something in a timely manner.
Now, they won’t have to.
After tonight’s vote, one senate leader after another spoke at the microphone to express their disappointment and vow that the bill is not dead.
It can’t be dead because too many real lives are at stake — and they don’t have the luxury of putting aside their worries until everybody (the landlord, ICE, the police) is in a better mood to discuss their future.

    The bill was terrible from both left and right perspectives, wasn’t it?

    Here’s the problem: for YEARS the US had passed amnesty after amnesty and it has done nothing to curb the flow of illegal immigrants. So, the public knows that all the “enforcement” provisions in this, or any other bill, will not be taken seriously and we will be in the same predicament in 10 years as we are in now.
    The middle class here is the group that is suffering. You complain about poor illegal alien children who can’t go to college?? Hundreds of thousands of American kids can’t go either. The loan system is flawed and many American families can’t afford to send THEIR kids to college. So who should get preference? The illegal alien or the American? Seeing as how we are in the United States, that answer should be a no brainer. Unless you are an illegal alien.
    So, as tender-hearted as it may seem to give the poor illegal immigrant and his family a break, that puts an enormous strain on the American middle class and THAT is why this bill is bad and the majority of Americans vehemently oppose it.

    I agree with you that none of the increasingly restrictive laws passed in the last 20 years have done much to stop the flow of immigration. So the solution is … to close the border once and for all! That is sure to work–I don’t know why we haven’t thought of this before.
    The middle class here is the group that is suffering.
    Yes, at the rate we’re going, the long-suffering American middle class may have to forego a new, even bigger flat screen tv or a new SUV this Christmas. This is one of the richest countries in the world. But apparently, the American middle class is still experiencing terrible persecution by impoverished immigrants. Huh?
    THAT is why this bill is bad and the majority of Americans vehemently oppose it
    Maybe on your planet, but on earth, most Americans supported the main planks of the bill, including a path to legalization for undocumented immigrants.

    Smash is right, and who are you Yave Begnet to say how our citizens should spend their money. We already have millions of American citizens living at the poverty level, so why should we adopt millions of impoverished foreigners. I vote to send them home, just as we’ve done with non-Hispanic aliens for years. Ethnic advocacy groups just want special privilege for “their people” over others to evade the consequences of violating our sovereignty. They are also trying to hasten the acquistion of additional political power, which will given them more opportunity to undermine our immigration laws and add new welfare benefits for “their people”. After amnesty, should there be one, others who come are to be deported under the Senate bill. Why should those already here be treated any different. Yave Begnet, if you want to subsidize illegal aliens, do it on your dime. If Americans wish to be charitable to illegal aliens, let them to do it charitably, in Mexico, not through the amnesty bill.
