Some authorization bills do have direct funding, that does not make a bill "real" or not.You got one thing right....it was just an idea. When it came to actually supporting a real bill...with real funding (HR2 has zilch) the Republicans were MIA.
Funny. I JUST found this article...from CATO....

Smart move by him really. The fewer LEGAL immigrants, the more ILLEGAL ones.
Lol. I DID read it.Lol. See this is what happens when you skim to prove some point, you stick your foot in your mouth.
Maybe actually read the article.
The complaints were surrounding the "complete collapse of interior enforcement and deportations"
Sure it does! When those people get inside of the USA, Trump would have allowed them to have free and unfettered reign.This article has not one thing to do with every cartel member in South America and mid Eastern terrorist in the world being given a free ride to the American city of their choice.
The Democrats refused to pass the House border protection bill that the House passed in May. They maintained the border was safe, secure, and closed. With all of the publicity they can't get away with those lies any longer, so with an election coming up their latest ploy is to admit there is a crisis and blame Republicans. Shame on everyone who was involved, and they bear responsibility for the lives lost.You only get the border protection you pay for.
After border bill failure, ICE considers mass releases to close budget gap
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has drafted plans to release thousands of immigrants and slash its capacity to hold detainees after the failure of a Senate border bill that would have erased a $700 million budget shortfall, according to four officials at ICE and the Department of Homeland Security.
The bipartisan border bill that Republican lawmakers opposed last weekwould have provided $6 billion in supplemental funding for ICE enforcement operations. The bill’s demise has led ICE officials to begin circulating an internal proposal to save money by releasing thousands of detainees and cutting detention levels from 38,000 beds to 22,000 — the opposite of the enforcement increases Republicans say they want.
Mayorkas is not responsible for the budget shortfall.
Maybe the GOP will come up with a 2024 budget proposal that fully funds ICE before the current deadlines for a government shutdown in March. Ha ha.
The bill does not provide any funding. Just a list of actions, like building walls, without any resources to do so.The Democrats refused to pass the House border protection bill that the House passed in May.

Broken record doesn't actually apply to this conversation (as noted above).The Democrats refused to pass the House border protection bill that the House passed in May. They maintained the border was safe, secure, and closed. With all of the publicity they can't get away with those lies any longer, so with an election coming up their latest ploy is to admit there is a crisis and blame Republicans.

Schumer stalled on the bill, it did not pass so there is no funding. Funding can come through appropriations bills.Where is the funding for this going to come from?
Well. Unless I misunderstand it doesn't matter that it stalled since there was funds in it to begin withWhere i
Schumer stalled on the bill, it did not pass so there is no funding. Funding can come through appropriations bills.
You misunderstand. Direct funding in bills is relatively new, typically bills have been funded through appropriations bills. If, for some reason, Schumer wanted any changes to a bill, the Senate could propose their own version with added wording, pass it, and then the House and Senate would try and hash out differences. The Senate won't budge on H.R. 2. The Speaker of the House has tried to get a meeting with Joe Biden for a month now. The truth is that Joe Biden and Democrats in leadership positions are quite pleased with the current border disaster.Well. Unless I misunderstand it doesn't matter that it stalled since there was funds in it to begin with
