UPDATE
6/26/23 - Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer [R-OR-5] wrote to us offering this excuse for co-sponsoring the pathways to citizenship bill: “Recently, I voted for the Secure the Border Act of 2023 (H.R.2) which is the strongest border security bill voted out of the House in decades.” So what? How is that an excuse for rewarding lawbreakers with citizenship? If you really believed in border security, you would be moving to impeach Joe Biden and Alejandro Mayorkas for failing to faithfully execute the nation’s immigration laws.

Confrontation:
Grassroots Groups Call Out RINO Cosponsors of Pathway to Citizenship Bill
June 2023
RINOs never learn.
We, the undersigned groups and individuals, strongly object to H.R. 3599, an ill-advised bipartisan immigration bill with Republican cosponsors that would establish pathways to citizenship and otherwise facilitate illegal immigration.
In 2013, the Gang of 8 ran into a firestorm of grassroots fury for proposing a pathway to citizenship for millions of illegal aliens already in the country. The Gang of 8 bill passed the Senate, but the grassroots stopped it in the House.
Now a new Gang has arisen proposing multiple pathways to citizenship for illegal aliens. We, the undersigned, guarantee the new bill’s cosponsors that their efforts will go down in flames the same way the Gang of 8’s did.
We object to “legal status for undocumented immigrants already living in the United States with the possibility of earning citizenship.”
We object to “new pathways for asylum seekers.”
We object to “new legal pathways for economic migrants and unaccompanied minors.”
We object to the creation of “new regional processing centers” for the purpose of increasing unlawful immigration.
We object to conferring special privileges upon millions of illegal aliens who knowingly broke our laws when they entered the United States. They can go back to their home country and get in line like others who seek immigration lawfully, people who are seeking entry the right way.
We do not object to lawful immigration, but we point out that the United States already has the most generous lawful immigration policies in the world. There is no reason to incentivize and grease the skids for more illegal immigration on top of an already magnanimous lawful immigration system.
Hence, we call out the Republican cosponsors of H.R. 3599 for their unprincipled pursuit of open borders policies and for their arrogance for proceeding in the face of unwavering opposition from grassroots groups like us.
