    Via Breitbart Immigration, Breitbart.COM/immigration, see Neil Munro
    on whether Donald Trump regrets taking Jared Kushner's advice to
    downplay the National Question on the campaign trail against Joe Biden
    and Kamala Harris: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2021/06/03/chamber-ceo-to-congress-import-workers-for-us-pay-them-with-citizenship/>
    | For example, the wealthy Democratic governor of Colorado, Jared
    | Polis signed a bill on May 31 that allows illegal immigrants to get
    | professional licenses for skilled blue-collar careers, such as
    | electricians, plumbers, welders, ironworkers. New Jersey's
    | Democratic governor Phil Murphy signed a similar bill in August
    | 2020, with minimal visible opposition from the progressive-dominated
    | trade union movement.
    |
    | The law would help foreign contractors to fly workers into the U.S.
    | on tourist visas for skilled construction jobs, just as Donald Trump
    | reportedly used Polish workers in 1980 for union construction jobs
    | in New York.

    Do Dick Trumka's members support open borders for scab workers?

    "This row is mostly a distraction. Trump delivered on pretty much
    everything Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan wanted at the expense of
    the populist agenda he campaigned on. This is mostly about pride and privileges--the petty things the GOP cares most about. The party is
    the problem" - Pedro Gonzalez <URL:https://twitter.com/emeriticus/status/1392319535383027712>
