No. they know better than 90 percent of the American people. Democrats believe local communities and local law enforcement are better judges of what will keep their communities safe than Donald Trump or Bill OReilly. The safety of our neighborhoods and local communities should not be a pawn for Republicans latest gambit to hide their failure to act on comprehensive immigration reform. Local law enforcement officials. domestic violence groups. immigrants rights groups. mayors. faith leaders. and labor groups all oppose The Donald Trump Act. This bill does nothing to keep Americans safe. and it certainly does nothing to address our broken immigration system. America is and always has been a nation of immigrants. and we are all the better for having hardworking immigrants as contributing members of our communities. This Nation deserves a commonsense immigration process that works. one that is tough on lawbreakers. fair to taxpayers. and practical to implement. but instead of joining Democrats in passing comprehensive immigration reform that unites families. strengthens communities. and boosts our economy. Republicans remain committed to their only approach to immigration policy: mass deportation. We all know this extreme rightwing approach would hurt our country and simply cannot work. The Donald Trump Act would shatter the trust between law enforcement and communities that keep our Nation safe. Republicans should abandon this shameless attempt to appease the base elements of their party. They should work with Democrats to pass comprehensive immigration reform. which is years overdue. Sadly. though. until Republicans get serious about immigration reform. the Republican leader shouldnt waste the Senates time on legislation that he knows will not pass. This legislation is not going to pass. He knows it.
