2016 flashes of Bernie. "You know if Yang (Bernie) just dropped out, because he can't win, it would really make Bernie/Warren's (HRC's) chances better.

Elizabeth Warren published her immigration plan
In her own words:

• Decriminalize migration and refocus enforcement on serious criminal activity.
  
• Separate law enforcement from immigration enforcement to strengthen our communities.
  
• Remake CBP and ICE in a way that reflects our values.
  
• Create accountability for the abuse perpetrated during the Trump Era.
  
• End unnecessary detention.
  
• Eliminate private detention facilities.
  
• Expand the executive use of parole and invest in alternatives-to-detention.
  
• Establish professional, independent Article I immigration courts.
  
• Eliminate expedited removal and provide due process.
  
• Reject exclusionary policies based on race, religion and nationality.
  
• Raise the refugee cap.
  
• Affirm asylum protections.
  
• Expand legal immigration.
  
• Make it easier for those eligible for citizenship to naturalize.
  
• Reduce the family reunification backlog.
  
• Repeal the 3- and 10-year bars.
  
• Provide a fair and achievable pathway to citizenship.
  
• Limit the penalties considered for status determinations.
  
• Create an Office of New Americans.
  
• Restore and increase aid.
  
• Step up efforts to address transnational crime.
  
• Inform and protect those seeking refuge.

Translated thats:

• Decriminalize illegal border crossings both forwards and retroactively
  
• End all border enforcement and detention for anything short of violent criminals
  
• Provide amnesty and citizenship to illegal aliens in the country now and in the future
  
• Provide free healthcare and social services to illegal aliens in the US as well massive aid to their home countries
  
• Greatly expand the flow of immigration into the US both through legal and illegal channels
  
• Persecute and lock up current law enforcement and officials

See, I at least tell myself I've got a neutral bone or two and am willing to hear out both sides and I'd strongly consider voting Klobuchar or Hickenlooper in 2020. But if Warren gets the nomination I won't just be a hard no after this, I'll actually get up and start donating to a Trump and maybe do some volunteering or something. Never donated to anyone since Wellstone.

Why should undocumented immigrants be prevented from healthcare access when a significant % of undocumented immigrants pay taxes, including federal income taxes?

Quote (Skinned @ 25 Sep 2019 18:08)

You want to fix immigration, this is a plan.

This is not a bad plan at all.

Immigration should be fixed. Trump has been in for years now and has offered no solutions.

"we don't care about people who immigrate/have immigrated here legally" -(D) frontrunner's immigration policy

But Republicans want to tax undocumented immigrants only to then both deny them services, but use that tax revenue to help themselves! The absolute horror of it all.
