John Boehner forms group to address child migrant crisis
Politico ^ | SEUNG MIN KIM

Posted on 06/24/2014 3:35:38 PM PDT by ObamahatesPACoal

Speaker John Boehner said Tuesday that he has appointed a “working group” of House Republicans tasked to respond to the border crisis involving the surge of unaccompanied minors trying to enter the United States illegally. (SNIP) Members of the working group include Republican Reps. John Carter of Texas, Mario Diaz-Balart of Florida, Bob Goodlatte of Virginia, Kay Granger of Texas, Michael McCaul of Texas, Steve Pearce of New Mexico and Matt Salmon of Arizona. Granger chairs the subcommittee that oversees funding for the State Department and foreign operations.

Diaz-Balart voted for the Dream Act and said he would have voted against Steve King's DACA amendment. John Carter joined Labrador and Gutierrez. I wonder if Raul got punished (against McCarthy) by not being included in Boehner's immigration squish group. Goodlatte is for amnesty and Dreamers. Steve King destroyed Gowdy and Goodlatte in the 2013 Dreamer Committee. So Gowdy went and complained to a scrum of reporters. McCaul: Im not sure but I think he says close the border first. But also wants to secure Mexico's southern border. Pearce wants legal status for illegals. He admits Reagan made a mistake. So there were 3 milllion illegals. Only half of them I think applied to be citizens. The other half just got work permits. It is still a magnet to illegals.

Matt Salmon is the worst House Rep from Arizona. http://seeingredaz.wordpress.com/2013/10/29/laura-ingraham-is-the-bear-in-matt-salmons-stream/

“The problem is that it can clearly be misinterpreted, and that’s too bad,” said Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart. R-Fla., who said he would have voted against the measure. (He missed the vote.) “Folks that might otherwise vote for the ‘dreamers’ voted the other way out of frustration with an administration that is out of control. I wish they would have chosen another issue.”

What a waste of time. Use your power of the purse or exact other consequences.

Probably the same members who comprise the "Southern Border Fence" committee. Now there's a committee that gets things done!! (Do I really need a /sarc tag?)

Excellent analysis. A committee of amnesty supporters, especially for “Dreamers.” is proof positive that this is another scam to promote amnesty.

...sounds like the Open Borders Republican crowd to me.

I don’t know why I even TRY to pay attention to what’s going on anymore because I think that America’s already over and it ain’t coming back.

It seems we are witnessing the rubber meeting the road with regard to state’s rights. At some point soon, the border states mainly affected — TX, NM, AZ — need to make a stand. Whether this comes from “official” channels or just a citizen militia, who knows. But it is abundantly clear that there will be no federales stopping this invasion. To the contrary, they are aiding and abetting it.

Would that be the Blue Ribbon committee or Yellow Ribbon Committee?

Until and unless chain migration is halted, there will be quite a price to pay. Helping children is one thing. Turning around and letting their parents in because they are here is the motive behind this gov’t move.

The answer to all those open border traitors: Even wider borders and no immigration laws.

I don’t know if you’ve heard this before. It was said years ago but it’s most unfortunately to the continued successful functioning of this country so, so prescient.

Read and weep!
