Washington, D.C. – Senate Democrats are playing fast and loose with the definition of infrastructure in their reckless $5 trillion tax and spending spree. Yesterday, Senate Democrats announced that they will include amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants in their so-called “American Jobs Plan” that’s supposed to be an infrastructure bill. Apparently illegal immigrants are infrastructure. See below.
As an unprecedented crisis rages at our Southern Border, Senate Democrats want to spend $105 billion in tax dollars to give millions of illegal immigrants amnesty. If this reckless spending spree were truly about infrastructure, Democrats would spend tax dollars on infrastructure to secure the border. But instead, they want to spend $105 billion to give amnesty to illegal immigrants who took advantage of Democrats’ open borders agenda.
American families have been hit hard by the border crisis Democrats created. Providing amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants without securing the border will only exacerbate the crisis. Democrats’ radical $5 trillion spending spree isn’t about infrastructure, it’s about ramming through the socialist Squad’s agenda.
Do vulnerable Senators like Mark Kelly, Raphael Warnock, Maggie Hassan, Catherine Cortez Masto, and Michael Bennet agree that amnesty for illegal immigrants is infrastructure, but commonsense border security isn’t?
