Democrats Plan to Use Parole to Amnesty Millions of Illegal Aliens

Congressional Democrats are at it again. Undeterred by failing twice to include a pathway to citizenship for millions of illegal aliens in the budget reconciliation package, Senator Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) hinted that Senate Democrats will try to use the parole process to give the illegals work permits and shield them from deportation. The proposal will require the approval of Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough, who previously shot down both amnesty attempts by Democrats.

Make no mistake, the attempt to use parole to shield millions of illegal aliens constitutes as great an amnesty threat as a pathway to citizenship. Parolees are able to work in the United States and access some public benefits – which is why illegal aliens come to the United States in the first place. In fact, this proposal is similar to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, except that it is moving through the legislative branch. But the parolees would function in a similar manner to DACA recipients. They would be able to work, go to school, and live in the U.S. without the fear of deportation. And, like DACA recipients, this “temporary” parole status would be anything but temporary the longer they reside in the country.

Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, the parole process only apply to aliens on a case-by-case basis, rather than applying it to large swaths of people. Despite that, past administrations have used it to parole both Cubans in the 1960s and some Afghans following our chaotic withdrawal earlier this year. Regardless, using parole authority to shield millions of illegal aliens – not refugees – is a Democratic solution well outside the bounds of the intent of the Immigration and Nationality Act.

And,of course,they will all be registed to vote before they are turned loose.

Many might not even know they are registered,or that they will be voting.

Could it be time for a "replay" of 1/6, this time with 300,000 citizens... bearing arms...?

The use of parole authority to enable designated populations abroad to enter the United States has
been particularly controversial. Some policymakers have argued that such programs are an
appropriate use of the DHS Secretary’s statutory authority, while others see them as violations of
the “case-by-case basis” requirement of the parole provision. Reflecting the latter view, President
Donald Trump’s Executive Order 13767 on Border Security and Immigration Enforcement
Improvementsdirects the DHS Secretary to“take appropriate action to ensure that parole
authority ... is exercised only on a case-by-case basis in accordance with the plain language of
the statute.”
