Will we do that. or will we not? I have said in the last couple years when someone comes up with an idea that will actually work to enforce our law and end the lawlessness. that is what gets objected to. If you come up with an idea that will not work. will only have an incremental benefit. people are glad to pass it and say they did something about immigration. But that is not the way we have been doing it. In my mind. it is no goodthis is the analogy I useif someone attempts to jump across a 10foot ravine and he jumps fully 9 feet but does not get across and falls to the bottom. how good is that? That is what we have been doing in immigration law. We have been passing bills. They have had loophole after loophole. gimmick after gimmick. impossibility after impossibility. and they have never worked.
