The Corker Amendment ostensibly addresses measures to beef up border security. It, however, is also likely to be the last amendment considered on the immigration bill. As such, it has become a 1,000+ page amendment to supplant the current proposal and provide multiple new provisions. It has become the vehicle for ObamaCare 2.0.

Buried within the text of the Amendment is a seemingly innocuous provision:

(f) APPLICABILITY OF CERTAIN GROUNDS OF INADMISSIBILITY.—In determining an alien’s inadmissibility under this section, section 212(a)(9)(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1182(a)(9)(B)) shall not apply.


What does that mean?

Current law states that those applying for green cards are ineligible if they are either "illegally present" at any point or overstay the terms of their work visa. Such an immigrant, in current law, would have to return to their home country and restart the immigration process. The Corker Amendment wipes away that enforcement mechanism.

In the current draft of the Corker Amendment, any worker in the country on a legal work visa for 10 years can get a green card, even if they overstay their visa. The Corker Amendment allows immigrants to break the law in the future and still be eligible for citizenship. It absolves prospective behavior, not simply past mistakes.

I'm proud to say that I voted for the Ron Paul democrat that opposed bailout Bob Corker.

Edit: Sadly he had to run against the Democratic party machine even after winning their nomination.

Washington DC's Soylent Green Nation


By reviewing all these criminal's sticking their master's legislation into bills from both sides of the same Vulture... they are creating a far worse economic disaster down the road. When that happens...


Washington DC will shield itself, barricade itself, and protect itself, as it creates a poorer and poorer nation, as they suck more and more of your income/labor.


Here's the latest to prove these rich cocksuckers lookout for themselves first. They don't give a fuck about you, only themselves and the bribery system to keep them in office. Look at this report from Reuters today.

(Reuters) - Automatic federal spending cuts known as sequestration have not spawned unemployment in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C., as many predicted, with data released on Friday showing that the three places gained jobs as their unemployment rates dropped over the last year.
According to the Labor Department, Virginia's unemployment rate was 5.3 percent in May, compared to 5.9 in May 2012. The drop was also seen for the District of Columbia, where the rate was 8.5 percent in May, compared to 9.1 percent the year before. For Maryland, the rate was 6.7 percent, down slightly down from 6.8 percent in May 2012.
Moreover, all three places gained jobs from May 2012.
Because it relies heavily on the federal government for jobs and money, the region had feared its economy would grind to a halt after sequestration began on March 1. A widely cited study from the George Mason University Center for Regional Analysis in Virginia estimated the state would lose about 154,000 jobs, Maryland more than 84,000 jobs, and the District around 92,500.
"These economies are showing, I would say, unexpected strength," the author of the study, Stephen Fuller, told Reuters. "Everybody was predisposed to thinking that decreases in federal spending and the sequester effects would have a visible impact on the economy. And it hasn't shown up. It's quite remarkable."
From May 2012, Washington, D.C. gained 3,000 jobs, Maryland 35,600 jobs and Virginia 48,200, the federal data showed. According to the Virginia Employment Commission, the state saw the strongest year-over-year increase in payrolls since April 2012.
