E-verify not included to the compromise bill.

@MEPFuller
A GOP lawmaker tells me they aren’t including the E-Verify amendment to the “compromise” immigration bill.

To much backlash from companies that employ illegal immigrants.

Lol their donors told them to fuck off. They need that illegal labor to be available.

lol, it's insane how the people who say immigrants steal Americans' jobs won't even put e-verify on their 'compromise' bill

How ironic, they need immigrants but don’t want us here

Welcome to the hypocrisy that is the modern GOP!

This is a double edge sword. E-Verify would impact many immigrants that have already been here for years; however, I do see the benefit of it. It does help workers by making sure they are not being screwed over and getting paid peanuts.

For that reason, mandatory E-Verify is best suited for CIR. Good thing they are not including it.

As someone said it before. E-Verify should only be implemented when all the illegal population has been legalized and along with it the border has been secured.

In all honesty, Trump has in policy conversations pushed the GOP's red line so much so that he's normalized granting pathway to citizenship aka "Amnesty" that's it's no longer a taboo

...it really shouldn't be too difficult at this point to reach for CIR...so as long as the two parties can drop their egos and actually work together in good faith.

At WH mtg w/Hse & Senate GOPers. Fox is told there was discussion about bolstering money for the wall..not to the level of $25 billion..but perhaps about $5 billion in this fiscal year. GOPers think they can boost it if they cut a DACA deal with Dems
