    Agreed. This discussion is 40 years late. I tired of it 20 years ago. It's a political football, and I see it now in more practical terms. Regardless, the only "real" Americans are Indian tribes.

    It is already illegal. It's all about the 'knowingly'.

    It is illegal for an employer to hire an illegal immigrant. It is also illegal for an employer to discriminate based on concerns of a document provided during the hiring process. The employer is held responsible if they hire someone who has provided documents that are perceived to be valid.

    Basically, the government performs a proctology exam sans the lube when it comes to illegal immigrants.

    We don’t have open borders. With the new wall how would anyone get in anyway?

    It appears we certainly have an open border policy moving forward.

    They’d still be in the country illegally. That’s not open borders.

    Another day another stupid bill proposal. Left wing extremists are as bad as right wing extremists especially QANON believers.

    That is just as silly as what the Squad says and does and as silly as the QANON supporters in Congress.

    We should not try to match silly to silly, wrong yo wrong, criminal to criminal.

    But Biden seems to be following along with the "squad" so it's not silly when the POTUS is going right along with the insanity.

    The very last thing this country needs is open borders. Here in Texas we're overrun with ESL classes, paying for meals in schools, gang problems like violence and high crime, and don't get me started on people with no car insurance ruining peoples' lives on a daily basis.

    Well big whoop!!! If we're not going to STOP them, nor DETAIN them, then how the hell do you propose we DEPORT them!?! Oh, I know, we'll put Spanish language ads in the classifieds, next to the lost dogs, "Please, please go home amigos".

    There were laws on the books as early as as early 1800's regarding immigration but wasn't truly enforced federally until the US Immigration act of 1882 which federalized immigration due to worsening economic conditions due to unmitigated immigration. The Immigration act of 1882 was radically overhauled and became vastly more restrictive with the immigration act of 1924.

    It's pretty obvious Biden wants as much illegals immigration allowed in as possible. EO's he's done for pro immigration in his first day in office:

    Executive Order on the Revision of Civil Immigration Enforcement Policies and Priorities: Revokes an executive order issued by former President Trump, which made sanctuary jurisdictions that did not comply with immigration enforcement measures ineligible to receive federal funding
    Issued: Jan. 20

    Executive Order on Ensuring a Lawful and Accurate Enumeration and Apportionment Pursuant to the Decennial Census: Requires that all residents of a state be counted in the census, regardless of immigration status
    Issued: Jan. 20

    Proclamation on Ending Discriminatory Bans on Entry to The United States: Revokes the so-called Muslim ban, which restricted foreign nationals from seven predominantly Muslim countries from entering the U.S.
    Issued: Jan. 20

    Preserving and Fortifying Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA): Directs the Department of Homeland Security to strengthen the regulation, which defers the removal of certain undocumented immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as children
    Issued: Jan. 20

    Proclamation on the Termination Of Emergency With Respect To The Southern Border Of The United States And Redirection Of Funds Diverted To Border Wall Construction: Halts construction and funding of the border wall
