re: What are your objections to (or praises of) Biden's immigration bill?

“Encounters” =/= “Crossings”

ETA: “Crossing” in the sense that the detained person is allowed to stay. They do indeed “cross” to be encountered, but that does not mean they stay.

Encounters includes immediate U-turns.

No idea what percent of encounters DO become crossings, but the narrative out there right now is just manipulation of the low-curiosity sheep.

Let's say this is all true.

Why? Why is the number not 0?

Any number higher than 0 is unacceptable. There should be no threshold number of encounters to enforce current US law and allow zero migrants into the country.

I'll also add another reason that I oppose the bill. Why is aid for Ukraine in a border bill?
