  1. This video among other things points out that immigrants fuel economic growth, and create jobs. Immigrants are also less likely to commit crime than American citizens. Preventing immigration is cruel, and it shoots your country in the foot.

    States have no right to coerce those that aren’t on the path to citizenship and gaining voting rights in cruel deportations

  6. he has applauded Vladimir #Putin for his barbarism & castigated #Ukraine for its unwillingness to commit suicide; he has led #racist attacks on various groups of #immigrants; he has employed unusually #cruel tactics in pursuit of #undocumented immigrants, most of whom have committed only one crime—illegally seeking #refuge in a country that they believed represented the dream of a better life. Those are SOME of the actions #Trump has taken.

  7. So, I play a lot of #ScrabbleGo . An unhealthy amount, probably, but that isn't what I'm writing for. Starting yesterday, the ever-present and usually completely ignorable #ads were at least 50% replaced by #DHS ads featuring #KristiNoem in poorly dubbed #Spanish, telling people to #SelfDeport. As obscenely evil as this is, being directed at #DocumentedImmigrants as much as #Undocumented, I took pleasure in the stupid waste of money it is. How many blue collar #Latine immigrants play #Scrabble ?

  8. §4 Preventing Federal #Benefits for *Aliens* in Sanctuary Jurisdictions [gives #USAG #PamBondi & #DHS secy #KristiNoem the power to define benefit #eligibility in #SanctuaryCities]

    §5 Equal Treatment of Americans [This eliminates state policies which authorize in-state #tuition for #undocumented immigrants.]

  9. In 2001, #Durbin introduced the #DreamAct w/Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT), in an effort to create a path to #citizenship for younger #undocumented #immigrants who had been brought to the US as children. It never became #law, but it laid the foundation for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals [#DACA] program, which was announced by President #Obama in 2012 & protected hundreds of thousands of immigrants from #deportation. #Trump has tried to end the program, & it remains under legal threat.

  10. #Durbin’s departure will reverberate in the #Senate, where he played a prominent role on a host of big issues & was considered a forceful advocate of party positions. He was among the first to push for a path to #citizenship for some #undocumented immigrants brought to the #UnitedStates illegally as children, a group that came to be known as #Dreamers that became the focal point of successive failed efforts to overhaul #immigration laws.

  11. Ah yes, the "illegal" opcodes—those mischievous little gremlins of the 6502 that do "useful" things by accident. 🤔 #Michael #Steil daringly dives into this chaos like it's the eighth wonder of the world, but spoiler alert: it's just #undocumented #spaghetti #code worship. 🍝✨

  12. It’s begun.

    The #SocialSecurity Admin this week entered the names & SSNs of >6,000 mostly Latino immigrants into a database it uses to track #dead people, effectively #erasing their ability to receive #benefits or #work legally in the #UnitedStates….
    
The move, requested by #DHS Secy [& dog killer] #KristiNoem, is aimed at putting pressure on the #undocumented immigrants to leave the country.

  14. The #BorderCrisis Won’t Be Solved at the #Border

    texasmonthly.com/news-politics

    If #Texas officials wanted to stop the arrival of #undocumented #immigrants, they could try to make it impossible for them to #work here. But that would devastate the state’s #economy. So instead #politicians engage in border theater.

  15. #Trump has more leeway when it comes to rolling back executive actions on #immigration, such as #Biden’s protections for the #undocumented immigrant #spouses of US #citizens. …However, his decisions would have to comply w/federal administrative #law, which sets requirements for changing govt #regulations.
    
Trump …tried 2X as president to dismantle the #Obama admin’s program protecting undocumented immigrants brought to the US as children but was blocked by #SCOTUS.

  16. 16 #Republican States Sue to End Program for Undocumented #Spouses of US Citizens

    The new #Biden admin initiative, which could put many #undocumented spouses of Americans on a path to #citizenship, began taking applications this wk.

    The program, announced June 18 by #POTUS, marked one of the most expansive actions to assist undocumented #immigrants since #DACA was enacted 12yrs ago.

  17. Democrats: Look to #Minnesota’s #Miracle.

    The avalanche of #progressive #legislation that the state’s two-vote Democratic majority in the
    state House and one-vote advantage in the state Senate have enacted this year is a wonder to behold.

    .“Democrats #codified #abortion #rights, #paid #family and #medical #leave, #sick leave, #transgender rights protections, drivers #licenses for #undocumented residents, restoration of #voting rights for people when they are released from prison or jail, wider voting access, one-time rebates, a #tax #credit aimed at low-income parents with #kids, and a $1 billion #investment in #affordable #housing including for rental assistance.”

    Take a breath and move on: “Also adopted were #background #checks for private #gun #transfers and a #redflag #warning system to take guns from people deemed by a judge to be a threat to themselves or others.

    [Democratic] lawmakers banned conversion therapy for LGBTQ people, legalized recreational marijuana, expanded education funding, required a carbon-free electric grid by 2040, adopted a new reading curricula based on phonics, passed a massive $2.58 billion capital construction package and, at the insistence of Republicans, a $300 million emergency infusion of money to nursing homes.” The mix of tax cuts and increases, by the way, will make the state’s revenue system more progressive
