Bernie Sanders Releases His Immigration Plan
An unserious proposal with serious consequences
By Andrew R. Arthur on November 11, 2019
Likely in an attempt to rise above the pack of Democratic nominees for president, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has issued his immigration platform. It is not a serious proposal, but it is one that would have serious consequences if implemented.
Captioned "A Welcoming and Safe America for All", it is a significantly more expanded document than one would normally expect from a campaign website. Generally, in politics (as in humor and Match.com profiles), brevity is a virtue. Not in this case: It runs 4,541 words by my count, or 12 pages of single-spaced 11-point Calibri type.
Fortunately, Sanders provides a synopsis at the beginning:
