Recent Supreme Court Rulings

Freebase Dali, you're missing the point as to why Libertarian/CoC wing of the Republican Party wants immigration reform in a manner consistent with that of the Left Wing of the Democratic Party. This bill, if passed, will add an estimated 40 million new workers to the labour pool within just the first decade. The effect of this will be to not only prevent the rise of the cost of unskilled labour but to decrease its value. Further, it will increase the unemployment rate, thereby decreasing the possibility of a federal minimum wage increase that compensates for the current inflationary monetary policy.

What's wrong with you? hand over your social security card and birth certificate to the nearest INS office.

You shall be deported shortly to your home country.

I know I'm a little late with this but for the people that still don't know about it.

Quote:

The Senate passed a politically fraught immigration reform bill on Thursday that would give a path to citizenship to some of the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the U.S., bringing them out of the shadows and preventing continued record deportations that have separated hundreds of thousands of families.

The bill passed 68 to 32, picking up all Democrats and 14 Republicans.

Undocumented immigrants and advocates in the crowd, many of them young so-called Dreamers, broke out into applause and chants of "yes we can!" after Vice President Joe Biden, who came to the Senate to preside over the proceedings, read the results. Senators in the bipartisan "gang of eight" that drafted the bill -- Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) and Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) -- patted each other on the back.

Senate Immigration Reform Bill Passes With Strong Majority

Not Supreme Court related but still newsworthy.

I don't get why older men feel like they are entitled to have anything to do with the decisions that women can make over their own body but whatever.

The basic gist of what happened is that Sen. Wendy Davis did a filibuster where she basically argued his case for about 13 hours straight and wasn't allowed to leave. She wore a back brace to help assist her because she isn't allowed to sit down over that long period of time. Part of the bill wants to close 37 of the states 43 abortion clinics.

<long explanation about volksdeutsche majority areas in the USA rather unique ways of adopting to the forced Anglicization as a result of the drop of immigration in the 1930s & it's modern ramifications>

I was taught to spell that way as a kid.
