The Republican party has capitulated to liberal demands. Congress is promoting a bipartisan measure to strengthen Dreamer protections. Illegal immigrants can rejoice-they’ve won. Our society is now warping to fit their needs.

Sens. Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) introduced the bill. Both emphasized the extra protections that would be in place for young illegals if the measure passed. The new Dream act dictates that English-speaking illegals who enter the U.S. at age 17 or younger are eligible for lawful permanent residency if they graduate from high school; have no criminal record; attended college, joined the military, or found a job; and paid a small fee.

The Huffington Post reports: “The new act would extend beyond the current pool of DACA recipients, because that program has an earlier cutoff date for arriving in the country. The latest Dream Act would require recipients to prove they’d been in the country continuously for four years prior to the law’s enactment.”

Nearly one million illegals were granted pseudo-residency in the first iteration of the act. The upgraded version will benefit even more migrants as the Senators decided to raise the age limit. Yet congressmen are speaking of the measure as if its passing should be considered a given.

President Trump may be the last brave Republican. Reports from the White House Thursday indicate that he won’t sign the bill.

“These kids are running out of asphalt. They’re running out of runway,” Sen. Graham said when announcing the legislation. “They came out of the shadows at the invitation of their government. They’ve identified themselves and their legal standing is now in question. It becomes an almost moral decision.”

Illegals came out of the shadows because Obama beckoned them. The White House is now under different leadership. Trump campaigned on strong anti-illegal immigration promises. Despite what Graham implies, most Americans don’t support the Dream act.

“We’re talking about three-quarters of a million people included in this,” Center for Immigration Studies Director Mark Krikorian said. “There’s got to be a legal immigration offset. The DREAM Act on its own is simply indefensible.”

Democrats have been raving about illegal immigration for years. They’ve become the party of “no,” the party that automatically positions itself against whatever conservatives advocate for. Trump wants to protect our borders, so, naturally, Democrats do not.

Congress bent over backward to appease illegals in the latest version of the Dream Act and it still might not be enough to please them.

“Democrats failed to pass the DREAM Act seven years ago when they were in power,” said Mohammad Abdollahi, co-founder of Dreamactivist.org. “They shouldn’t expect undocumented youth to wait a second longer for them to take action. DACA has always just been a temporary solution and we are activating our over 650,000 members across the country and will ensure passage of the DREAM Act this congressional session.”

Women who want to reside in the states will be encouraged to enter illegally if the act goes through. Just drag a child across with you and you’ll suddenly be much harder to deport. If Dreamers are allowed to stay in the country, suddenly their parents will have a plausible reason to demand that they be allowed to stay as well.

“Dreamers are under imminent threat,” the Huffington Post writes. “A group of state politicians led by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton threatened the administration with legal action last month if Trump does not end DACA by early September. If the group does take action, it’s possible the Trump administration wouldn’t defend DACA― Attorney General Jeff Sessions is one of the biggest critics of the program…”

Thank goodness for Sessions and Trump. Let’s hope that they can stop this madness before it becomes law.
