For more reading: “Senate Republicans block bipartisan border package, scrapping deal they had demanded from Democrats”, 7 Feb 2024, PBS Republicans don't want to actually improve the situation at the border. That would be politically inconvenient.

@jvoet123 Месяц назад

THIS wasn't the deal they demanded. If it was it would have passed. Do you really think that the Democrat controlled Senate created a border bill containing Republican wish list items? Funny how the House of Reps passed their own border security bill last year that was DOA in the Senate, but no one is talking about that. I don't recall the 2023 headlines saying, "Democrats don't want to actually improve the situation at the border."

It would also increase the capacity for ICE detention capacity from 34,000 to 50,000. It would mean people who arrive in the U.S. illegally would not be able to claim amnesty and it would force the government to shut down the border at times where there is a 7-day rolling average of 5,000 encounters per day, or 8,500 encounters in a single day. When encounters approach 4,000 people a day, the U.S. government would be granted the power to voluntarily turn away all people at border stations. @@jvoet123

The border bill would provide for an additional 100 asylum judges, increasing the number by 13% from 743 to 843 judges. At the same time, we've had a 250% increase in "asylum" seekers. Please explain how these 100 judges will make the process 12X faster.

@@jvoet123 Lol, I like how you went to the actual source and then ignored highly relevant information. "Today, there are approximately 1,000 Asylum Officers; the bipartisan Senate bill would add an additional 4,300 Asylum Officers and it would make the asylum process faster and fairer."

Whatever it is it was something put together by BOTH parties and still was the most CONSERVATIVE border bill to ever be drafted.... so....... let's stop looking for excuses when the reason was already given on why this didn't pass.... Trump didn't want it. Even back in 2018 when Republicans had the majority in both houses AND the presidency... they chucked the issue 😆 🤣 😂.. But sure let's go off on the Dems everyone! 😅

@@garenthal9638 ok it's 20% How much funding do you think is needed for the border? Do you even know how much 20% is? Lastly, when the legislation is in place, 5000 people a day will not be coming through. And not for nothing, the Republicans said it was a great bill before Trump squashed it. So if the most staunch Republicans said it was a good deal, are you now saying they don't know what they're talking about?

@thewaffle003 Месяц назад

You are wrong. It was 20 billion for the border. Would've cut asylum processing down to 6 months from 6 years. That is literally everything. That's the problem solved right there. It means the immigrants who come in are vetted nearly instantly relative to the current processing times.

@@elephant_888 So the current average wait time is 4.3 years. If that's reduced to 3.7 years, how does that deter people from coming here? And the patrol officers and judges are not there to deport, they're there to fascilitate assylum claims. In Trump's last year in office there were 186,000 deportations (41% of all illegal crossings). In Biden's 1st year in office there were 59,000 deportations (3.4% of all illegal crossings). That's a MASSIVE difference. Why is that?
