Non-Amnesty Immigration Bill Emerging
The issue of illegal immigration is a dramatic one for US voters, most of whom understand what is truly at stake. Left wing Progressives are pushing hard for “path to citizenship” schemes aka “amnesty” using every emotional plea and propaganda trick in the book. Right wingers are demanding hard line enforcement of the rule-of-law and want to see most illegal immigrants caught and punished, then repatriated as required by law. Moderates support the rule-of-law but also want to treat illegal immigrants humanely. Thus the three major groups appear entrenched in their positions. Yet one idea has now come forth that seems to bridge the divides between all groups and has gained over 80% in focus group support as the best solution for the nation. It is known as the BUIRA bill proposal.
The Bonn Unlawful Immigration Reform Act is a bill proposal now being quietly considered by many Republican law makers in both the House and Senate. BUIRA is now seen as the alternative to Comprehensive Amnesty that is estimated to cost taxpayers $4 trillion while also violating Article 4, Section 4 of the US Constitution if imposed.
BUIRA’s top claims include:
• Permanently solves and ends the issue of illegal immigration in America in about 12 months.
• Saves taxpayers as much as $400 billion annually beginning in Year 2.
• Ends the need for either “amnesty” or so called “mass round-ups”.
• Eliminates the cost and need to arrest, prosecute, and jail an estimated 8.5 million illegal immigrants who have typically committed a variety of felonies related to immigration, including: identity theft, perjury, false citizenship claims, false right to work claims, document forgery, and other related crimes considered common among the vast majority of the illegal immigrant population.
• Helps law enforcement better focus on finding hardened gang members and professional criminals and terrorists by clearing the decks and removing redundancies across the board for local, state, and federal law enforcement.
• Keeps families together and treats illegal immigrants humanely.
BUIRA works by staying within the intent of existing laws dealing with unlawful immigration and US policies, as well as adheres to American values and sense of fair play. However, the short bill proposal does not tackle the more complicated issues of legal immigration or border security.
