You're Not Going to Believe This, But Leftwing "Republicans" Are Pitching, Get This, Comprehensive Amensty Reform Yet Again, This Time With a Hot New Name Designed to Appeal to Your Psychology: "The DIGNITY Act"

Well who could possibly be against Dignity?

You're not against la dignidad, are you, Racist?

This bill is cosponsored by 20 "bipartisan" Democrats and Democrats who run as Republicans because the rubes they're conning lean right. It is pushed by long, long time Amnesty Whore Maria Elvira Salazar.

It's literally no deportations, work permits, and a pathway to citizenship.

What exactly do you think the word amnesty means?

READ. THE. BILL. BEFORE. YOU. OPEN. YOUR. MOUTH.

Calling the DIGNITY Act "amnesty" isn't just wrong. It's a deliberate distortion and it exposes just how little you know about the bill.

This is enforcement first: zero tolerance for criminals, permanent border security, and hard, earned requirements to step forward and face the law, so American workers are protected, not undercut.

Amnesty is the chaos you've defended, millions in the shadows, no control, no accountability, and a system that stopped working a long time ago.

No shortcuts. No giveaways. No blanket forgiveness. That's law and order. That's DIGNITY.

Does that sound like a lie to you?

Because it is:

Directly addresses the post's claim · Provides important context
It grants amnesty: permanent residency (Dream Act), deferred action & legal status (Dignity Program), and halts deportations. Wipes 3/10 year bans, creates inspected and admitted loophole, grants AG power to terminate deportation for family "hardship"

So, I did exactly what you asked and I sat down and read ALL 261 pages of your bill.

It does support mass amnesty and I'll tell you exactly where:

Pages 162-170... The Dream Act:

You grant conditional lawful permanent resident status to ILLEGAL ALIENS who:

>Have been continuously present in the U.S. since January 1, 2021
>Entered before age 18
>Meet education, employment, or military service requirements
>Pass criminal background checks

On top of this, in Sec. 2102(b)(3)(B), DACA recipients get fast-tracked to conditional green card status.

...which is literally mass amnesty

BUT THE BILL GOES EVEN FURTHER!!!

On pages 204-217, you present the Dignity Program:

This is a separate track for illegal aliens who don't qualify for the Dream Act.

If you are an illegal aliens who:

> Was continuously present since December 31, 2020
>Pay a $1,000 upfront "restitution" fee
>Submit biometrics, pass a background check
>No felony convictions

You get work authorization + travel authorization + deferred removal for 7 years

After completing the 7-year program (paying $7,000 total in fees, staying employed, obeying laws, paying back taxes):

We grant you:
> "Dignity Status" which is essentially a lawful nonimmigrant status, which is renewable any number of times
>Work and travel authorization

But the most important bit that you're hiding here is that it totally suspends deportation of anyone who qualifies for this.

This would effective end ALL MASS DEPORTATIONS in the United States immediately.

You are a liar, you are a fraud, everything you stand for is fake... did YOU read your own bill?

Because I just did, and you are a damned LIAR!!!!!

It's not just that, either. The bill specifically forbids the use of court records to establish someone is a gang member. It pretends that gang members aren't eligible -- but then forbids the government from using court evidence to show someone is a gang member.

Now I have a feeling I know the lie she'll offer: Well, if someone is convicted of being a gang member, then they would be barred from amnesty.

But hang on: Who is ever "convicted of being a gang member"? There is no crime of being a gang member. Gang members are frequently jailed -- but for things like extortion, murder, rape, arson, theft, selling stolen goods, importing and selling drugs, etc.

You might get a sentence lengthened if the prosecutor, during the sentencing phase, then presents additional evidence that in addition to the crimes you've been convicted of committing, you're also a gang member.

A judge might make it a condition of someone's parole that he no longer participate in gang activities -- and a prosecutor or parole officer might present to the court that the criminal has violated that condition.

But this isn't "conviction for being a gang member." It's intelligence and evidence presented to a judge in a post-sentencing hearing, not presented to a jury to determine if someone is factually a gang member or not.

But this is exactly the kind of evidence this nasty lying whore forbids the government from using to prove that someone is a gang member.

So there is literally no evidence that the government can ever present to prove someone is a gang member and hence not eligible for Salazar's Mass Amnesty.

So all gang members will be granted amnesty, because the government is absolutely forbidden to open its records to show someone is a gang member.

But she'll lie to you and say that proven gang members aren't eligible. Asterisk: There is no evidence permitted to be introduced to prove someone is a gang member.

But this isn't amnesty, Bigots.

READ. THE BILL. BEFORE. YOU OPEN. YOUR MOUTHS. RACISTS.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican Hello Representative Salazar,

You probably don't even know this... but he word "dignity" in your bill's title carries decades of political science literature behind it.

Dignity shifted from something that originates within the individual to something engineered from above by institutions. When the UN, NGOs, and multilateral bodies invoke dignity, they mean the replacement of organic, inherited civic bonds with managed, contractual ones administered by a professional class. That is the tradition your bill's language is drawing from, whether you intend it or not.

On the substance: the DIGNITY Act is amnesty. Symbolic barriers to permanent residency do not change that the bill provides a path to legal status for tens of millions of people who entered the country unlawfully. Others have dissected the policy details thoroughly, so I won't repeat their work here.

But I want to press a different question. Why the insistence that this isn't amnesty? The most straightforward explanation is that you know your constituents oppose it. They voted for enforcement, in the most demographically diverse Republican coalition in modern history. That coalition didn't ask for managed integration. It asked for sovereignty.

The Founding Fathers built a republic from the bottom up, starting with human nature as it actually is: rooted in specific communities. The rules-based international order builds from the top down, starting with an abstract ideal and engineering populations to match it. Your bill, whatever its intentions, belongs to the second tradition, the one that is non-American. It assumes that cohesion can be manufactured through NGO programs... public schools, civic integration, managed assimilation... rather than protected through enforcement of the boundaries that a self-governing people chose to establish.

That is not a conservative position. It is not a republican position in any meaningful sense.

And your constituents can see it.

We see you.

You are a fraud, Representative Salazar.
