Morris Dees and $PLC certified deplorable, Robert Law, on the
failure of the Cheap Labor Lobby to insert language opening the
spigot wider for scab workers from the top two quintiles: <URL:

| But the bill does include a few problematic immigration provisions.
| First, Congress provides money for the Biden administration to
| continue allowing Afghans into the country through the Special
| Immigrant Visa (SIV), or "humanitarian parole". This is problematic
| because Congress already allocated $7 billion for this purpose in
| December and there is no way that money has already been spent.
| Additionally, previous stopgap funding bills adopted an overly broad
| definition of who can qualify as an Afghan parolee. Tragically, some
| of these visa-less, and largely un-vetted, Afghans have gone on to
| commit heinous crimes in American communities once DHS released them
| from custody. Additionally, Congress yet again delegated authority
| to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to increase the H-2B cap. While
| many members of Congress from both parties champion this cheap labor
| pipeline, lawmakers continue to punt the matter to the executive
| branch instead of revising the law to set the H-2B cap at the
| "right" number.
Will Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy impeach Lloyd Austin, Tony
Blinken and Alejandro Mayorkas for importing future Omar Mateens?

"Wolf did little to secure funding for the border wall. We had to
wait until the end of the Trump admin to see how little got done: 80
miles of new wall. Trump is campaigning now on doing what he said he
did already got done in 2020 with guys like Wolf fumbling around.
