i swear migapedes and the like are fucking retarded, bernie has literally been mass open borders immigration/mass amnesty his entire career when the rubber meets the road.   11/07/bernie-sanders-2020-immigrati on-plan-067204 sanders plan proposes a wholesale rewrite of the u.s. immigration system  everything from border security to legal status. sanders would seek to expand two obama-era programs  deferred action for childhood arrivals, and deferred action for parents of americans and lawful permanent residents  with the goal of allowing 85 percent of undocumented immigrants who have lived in the u.s. for at least five years to stay without the threat of deportation. sanders says he would push congress, immediately to pass legislation outlining a five-year pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, with priority status for young people; any bill sanders signs would not reduce traditional, family-based visas. sanders says he would decriminalize border crossings. punitive policies have been justified as a deterrent to migration, but in addition to being morally wrong, there is no evidence that these policies have served this purpose, sanders says in the plan. the criminalization of immigrants has wasted billions of taxpayer dollars, dehumanized vulnerable migrants, and swelled already-overcrowded jails and prisons. sanders says he would end detention for essentially every migrant without a violent criminal conviction. the vermont senator would fund community-based alternatives to detention that would give migrants access to legal resources and health care.
