    “What’s been negotiated would — if passed into law — be the toughest and fairest set of reforms to secure the border we’ve ever had in our country,” Biden said in a statement. “It would give me, as President, a new emergency authority to shut down the border when it becomes overwhelmed. And if given that authority, I would use it the day I sign the bill into law.”

    So Biden wants to give Republican presidents this power too?

    Like, it’s more concerning Biden said he’d do it “day 1”, but every fucking Republican is actually going to do it day 1.

    The only reason I can think of Dems wanting this is so they can say “vote D or Republicans will do this terrible thing we let them do”

    Population growth rate is on a downward trend, though sometimes I wish it would freefall already, would really enjoy watching fox when republicans realise they need immigration just to keep society running

    When the majority of the people are old and retired, but there isn’t enough young people to support them.

    It would be hilarious if by that time USA has alienated everyone from wanting to go there anyway

    They’ll never do it. They can’t actually do anything about immigration reform, if they do they won’t have it to rile the base the next election a Dem is in charge. Republicans only ever seem to have an issue with immigration leading into elections with incumbent Democrats.
