Padilla, Paul introduce bipartisan bill to protect 200,000 "Documented Dreamers"
 
What in the hell?

Quote:

Sens. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) and Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Wednesday introduced a bill that seeks to provide a pathway to citizenship for the country's 200,000 "Documented Dreamers."

Why it matters: Documented Dreamers are children of long-term visa holders who often wait years for a green card and face deportation if they don't receive legal immigration status after turning 21, when they lose dependent status.

• They come to the U.S. as dependents of long-term nonimmigrant visa holders including H-1B, L-1, E-1 and E2 workers. Backlogs mean they often have to wait for a green card or other forms of immigration status for years or even decades.

• Most are Asian American, according to Dip Patel, a Documented Dreamer and the president of immigration advocacy group Improve the Dream. Roughly 70% immigrate from India, Patel said.

• Details: Padilla and Paul's legislation, called the America's Children Act, would provide a pathway to permanent residency and establish age-out protections that lock in a child's age on the date they file for a green card rather than the final action date.

It would also provide work authorization for Documented Dreamers 16 years and older while their green card applications are pending.

"These children who have legally called the United States home for many years and even decades ... shouldn’t be penalized by the government’s failures in addressing green card backlogs," Paul said in a statement.

"We cannot turn our backs on the ‘Documented Dreamers’ who have spent most of their lives in this country, contributing to their communities and our economy," Padilla added.
Reps. Deborah Ross (D-N.C.), Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-Iowa), Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.) and Young Kim (R-Calif.) introduced a House version of the bill in July.

What they're saying: "People don't realize that this is happening, that thousands of people who have been ... brought here at a young age, raised and educated here on visas with a legal status are having to leave the country," Patel told Axios ahead of the bill's introduction.

He was nine when he and his parents came to the U.S. from India to open a small convenience store in Illinois.

"Over 200,000 Documented Dreamers who had felt hopeless now have hope for being recognized as something we have long felt: Americans," he said in a statement Wednesday. "We are America's Children and this bill will recognize us as such."

Very disappointed with Alex Padilla. He represents the state of California and it has the highest undocumented DACA dreamers in the Country and this is the best he can come up with?

Just waste of energy. It’s gonna happen through reconciliation or not happen at all. And pretty shitty bill to begin with too.

This documented dreamer riding on our coat tails thing is such bullshit. They are literally "documented" for fuck's sake! They have actual status. They're free to get a driver's license; they're free to apply to school; they're free to get on flights; they're free to travel internationally; and most importantly, they can just adjust their status if they get a job offer, get married, win the visa lottery, etc. etc. etc. They are nothing like us.

IF they ever do become undocumented like us and actual dreamers then well hell, welcome to the party pal, it sucks down here doesn't it? That's why we've been fighting so if a law is passed to cover us, it will include them too IF they also become undocumented. Not until then.

Smooth, I thought about it for a little bit but honestly, I have to disagree.

I’m actually more pissed off at Rand Paul. Since he thinks they’re worthy while we’re not. There’s no difference between us. What a fucking hypocrite.

Padilla supports both of us so idc if he introduces this bill. It isn’t going anywhere btw.

The government gives us 180 days to pack our shit and gtfo once we turn 18. It gives them 3 years to figure out their plan B at a much more favorable terms or pack their shit and gtfo.

Not to mention that basically all of them are Indian and Indians kinda caused their own problems by creating multi-year backlogs in the EB categories by basically spamming the H-1B system. Those fuckers were seething when S. 386 didn't pass last congress because fuck making Indian problems the problem of everyone else in the world.

How many of us grew up with the idea of "only way to fix your shit is to marry a citizen" hammered into our heads? Go arrange yourself a marriage to a US Citizen.

They’ve been spamming twitter like crazy. They’re going after Durbin for giving preference to undocumented immigrants. I understand that not everyone of them is expressing those sentiments but it’s really unfair for them to pit us against each other when they’ve basically had it pretty damn good for most of their lives here.

It is so pathetic that the US congress has not been able to come up with and pass reasonable comprehensive immigration reform in decades and have just let serious issues pile and pile like bone dry firewood and gunpowder.
