Republicans Should Ally With The American People

Every time Republicans reach out to Democrats to write a bipartisan bill, they inevitably sell out conservative values and accept liberal poison pills to get Democrats' votes.

"This much is certain about the border agreement being negotiated by Senate Republicans and the Biden administration: There is no excuse for a weak deal. The border crisis could cost Democrats this year's election and put Donald Trump in the White House - and Democrats know it. That means Republicans have all the leverage in these negotiations. So, any deal that Republicans reach needs to force Biden to take steps that will cause some in his party to balk - if Biden won't do these things, it will be clear that he doesn't want to stop illegal immigration. He only wants to stop Trump from entering the Oval Office again."

He would often say to us, "My job is to shine the light on the American people, so they will turn up the heat on Congress." In his farewell address, he said "I've had my share of victories in the Congress, but what few people noticed is that I never won anything you didn't win for me. They never saw my troops, they never saw Reagan's regiments, the American people. You won every battle with every call you made and letter you wrote demanding action."

Every item in the Contract was overwhelmingly popular with the American people.

Recent America's New Majority Polls make clear the kind of border security bill the American people support.

You would think numbers this massive would help define an American citizen-based bipartisanship.

The more the American people learn about the U.S. Senate's supposedly bipartisan bill, which should be called the Illegal Immigration Support Act, the more they will oppose it - and question the common sense of the people who wrote it.
