House Democrats and Republicans, including Reps. Mike Lawler, Lori Chavez-DeRemer, and María Elvira Salazar have cosponsored a bill that offers millions of illegal aliens an amnesty, streamlines but doesn’t help end the asylum crisis at the border, and doubles the number of green cards.

This bill will cause another huge run on the border as millions of illegals would perceive they can get citizenship. (The Wall Street Journal)

Experts have told me they don’t expect Adams to get his way. (The New York Times)
