They’re saying it is the back taxes provision that violates the revenue restrictions in the Constitution, but it seems to me that the FINES that illegals would have to pay are ALSO revenue.

So, even if the Senate pulls the back taxes provision, it could still be blue slip it.

The bill will have to take on a House version in order to pass with revenue references. If they strip out the revenue portions, it becomes a PURE AMNESTY bill.
