Vulnerable House Democrats, many of whom are facing tough re-elections next year, helped pass the “largest amnesty in American history” out of the House, experts say.
On Friday, House Democrats passed President Joe Biden’s $1.75 trillion “Build Back Better Act,” which includes an amnesty for about seven million illegal aliens while expanding legal immigration to the United States.
“At a time when unpopular Biden administration policies have sparked the greatest surge in illegal immigration in American history, the razor-thin Democratic majority in the House is rewarding illegal behavior and encouraging even more of it,” Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) President Dan Stein said in a statement.
“It is a shameless effort on the part of the White House and Democratic leadership to enact radical immigration policy changes through budget reconciliation that could never be approved on their own merits,” Stein said.
Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME), who won his seat in 2020 by less than 23,000 votes, was the only Democrat to join House Republicans against the plan.

Friday, while the House voted in favor of the Build Back Better agenda’s passage, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) ripped the $1.75 trillion “festival of bad ideas.”
Kennedy told Fox News Channel’s America’s Newsroom he wasn’t sure if the bill would pass in the Senate because he doesn’t know if they “are going to get their ducks in a row” any time soon.
“Some of the Democrats — they always talk tough, but then they moo and follow Speaker Pelosi into the chute like cattle. It’s a really bad bill. I don’t know who at the White House came up with it, but if zombies eat brains, they’re safe,” Kennedy declared. “I mean, this thing is like — when you get rid of the gimmicks, it is like … $4.6 trillion. … I went broke reading it. We don’t even have 5% of that — $2.5 trillion new taxes, $2.5 trillion new debt, federal takeover of daycare, childcare, early childhood education, health care, welfare for illegal immigrants. I mean, it’s just a festival of bad ideas.”
“I don’t think the Democrats are going to get their ducks in a row for another four weeks and maybe 12 weeks. Right now, they don’t even know where their ducks are. They’re having a big fight among themselves, as they should. I mean, this is one of the worst bills I’ve ever seen,” he added. --->WATCH THE INTERVIEW HEREFollow links below to related stories:
