New Bipartisan immigration bill

nope. I have already posted several variations of what I would like to see. None of them mention doctors, nurses or any other profession.

You proved my point to him.

Who can stay now?

I feel like you’re evolving.

I’ve posted several variations. It has not been an evolution, it is the same solution I’ve supported as long as I’ve been here. As far as the current bill goes, I’ll take what I can get. Same as the Bush era bill. Things I don’t like in both, things I do like in both. Neither is what I’d prefer.

That would work for me,
but the law is the law so deport all the ones the acame here illegally, lied to stay here broke the law to work here.

Hmm I am not sure I want habitual crimnals teaching, praciticng medicine, practicing law etc, anyway.

I’m very glad nativists won’t matter soon.

:rofl: You guys are something else.

  • You can get get screwed by a dishonest attorney, in fact you proably know someone who has been.

  • Dishonest doctors? Yup they are everywhere. 15 mins, write 'scrip cash a check, NEXT!

  • And don’t even get me, (or anyone on this forum,) started on what bad teachers can do.

Nope, if someone has an established history of being dishonest and committing crimes, that is more like legal cause to revoke their creedential to teach, practice law, practice medicine etc.. Don’t you think so?

I can meet you halfway.
If the three toime law breakers coming into this country had been primarily well-established teachers etc. then there probably would not be as much pressure to get them out.

Who are “The immigrants?” My mom and my brother in law are both immigrants. They would be highly offended by your disgusting attempt to lump them in with invaders. And nearly all immigrants would. Why must you be so insulting? Why the hate?

Who stole your job!?

Mine no one, but many many of my fellow Americans (my brother included) have had their jobs stolen by these criminals.
and many hnetst business peopleahve been squeezed out if business by the despicable frimals who set up fulltime criminal enterprises.

It’s kinda like when you see a woman being beaten and raped on the street. Do ya say “Well it’s not -->ME<-- so . . .”

Not on all issues. It is rare to find someone who is conservative on every issue, just as it is rare to find someone who is liberal on every issue.

To pretend that Trump isn’t governing from the right, though, is kind of silly. IMHO

Maybe for you, but for me it isn’t who comes here, it is how they come here, legally or illegally.
