House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has picked amnesty advocate Rep. John Katko (R-NY) to lead a team of GOP legislators that will “focus on solutions to secure our borders.”
“John Katko is the typical corporate Republican,” said one person active in the immigration debate. He added:
He speaks a great game on illegal immigration, and is sorrowfully bad on legal immigration to the United States. He has never found a guest worker program he does not support, he’s never found a legal immigration program he does not think should be expanded, and I don’t think that he considers immigration as something that affects working Americans.
“2021 has seen chaos at our southern border brought on by an administration in denial about a crisis,” said a statement from McCarthy’s office about the task forces:
The American Security Task Force, led by Ranking Member John Katko, will focus on solutions to secure our borders, protect the nation against cyber-attacks, and support the men and women in law enforcement. The American people deserve safety and security and a Congressional majority that delivers common sense solutions, not dangerous policies that weaken law enforcement and open our borders.
In March, Katko voted for a bill that would provide farm companies in his district and nationwide with an unlimited inflow of cheap H-2A visa workers. The H-2A workers would displace many Americans, shrivel spending at local stores, shrink towns’ tax revenue, and reduce the pressure on farm companies to invest in wealth-generating machines, such as cow-milking robots.

Katco voted to impeach Trump.
He won’t be a representative too much longer.
But this is who McCarthy picks.
Katko has been a reliable, left Republican enemy of Trump. Either McCarthy is stupid and obtuse or he is really a Paul Ryan type speaking occasional conservative lingo to fool the party base.
There is only one republican I trust on the border: Trump. The rest of them are all fakes who pretend to care but their solution always comes down to “if we make them all legal than we don’t have an illegal immigration problem anymore. But we’ll put a couple of cameras on our open borders and call it a high-tex-fence to appease the Neanderthal puritans.”
We need to get rid of Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy form their leadership positions after the GOP regains control in 2022.
One RINO picking the RINO who voted to impeach Trump.
Bush League Republicans are all Cheap Labor Express stooges.
If we keep re-electing them, they will keep assisting the Democrats to a permanent majority.
he is really a Paul Ryan type speaking occasional conservative lingo to fool the party base.
Should McCarthy become speaker, he will block ANY subpoenas of ANY Democrat, just as Ryan did.
Republicans? No thanks, you can keep that stinking party.
McCarthy is a back-stabbing RINO.
No, we need to vote against McCarthy in the Republican Primary and, if he wins anyway, vote for his opponent in the general. We need to boot these clowns out of the Party or we will never get our country back.
McCarthy has got to go!
“Katco voted to impeach Trump.
He won’t be a representative too much longer.”
Yup
He gonna get bounced.
yes but bidness needs that cheap labor dont’cha know?
“No, we need to vote against McCarthy in the Republican Primary and, if he wins anyway, vote for his opponent in the general.”
I agree 100%. RINOs are an impediment to getting a more conservative representative.
Exactly, not ridding the party of RINOs is what doomed Trump. He was stuck with whatever Cocaine Mitch would let him have, and sabotaged Trump’s Presidency.
This may be why we will lose ‘22 and ‘24.
McCarthy once again shows his true colors
