Harry Ringside Reid put efforts to end Catch and Release on the shelf

July 13, 2006 in Border Security, Congress, Democrats & The Left, Illegal Immigration, Republicans & The Right, Senate

WASHINGTON—U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, chairman of the Immigration and Border Security subcommittee, offered an amendment to the pending homeland security funding bill Tuesday that would end the practice of “catch and release” for hundreds of illegal immigrants each week. The Cornyn amendment would require federal judges to take into account national security and border security when imposing any injunction that restricts the Department of Homeland Security’s ability to administer immigration laws. The amendment closes a current loophole in the law for illegal immigrants from El Salvador.

Harry Reid Raised a “point of order” to kill the amendment, clearly demonstrating his commitment for national security… He has none… Like most Democrats.

[...] For the latest and freshest in illegal immigration reform, click to the CoalitionBlog. DeMediacratic Nation posts an excellent article on green card scams, pointing out again that the US media does not get the diff between immigrant, and illegal immigrant. Morning Coffee notes an effort by John Cornyn to end “catch and release” — which Harry Reid’s already opposing, with a point of order (which will mean it doesn’t even get debated). The Uncooperative Blogger has a round-up of Colorado’s new immigration bill, some recommendations for President Bush, and a synopsis of Karl Rove’s (unfotunate) remark’s to La Raza. Tom considers the importance of speaking a common operational language — and while you’re there, check out Tom’s take on how Walmart hates America. (Good reading.) [...]
