There is no problem with our current immigration system. The system isn’t broken… wait it is. The system is broken because those charged with enforcing the laws THEY CREATED have failed to do so. Their new solution create another law opening the door to 30,000,000+ illegal aliens.
Paul Ryan probably thinks he lost the ’12 election with Mitt Romney because they didn’t capture the hispanic vote. Not true, they lost because approx 3 million WHITE voters stayed home instead of voting for either candidate! So Ryan teams up with radical leftist Rep Luis V. Gutierrez to get a bi-partisan immigration reform bill in the House.
Many people had high hopes for Ryan, but after he let Joe Biden grandstand all over him and has taken this naive position with immigration reform I’m one of many pretty much ready to write this guy off too!
After Ryan was on with Mark Levin June 18th following the interview the Great One said “it’s so sad”. Levin explained the facts and economic impact ILLEGAL ALIEN amnesty will have on the nation which Ryan is so misled on…
As a matter of fact a few days prior to the Ryan interview Levin went nuclear over this push by Ryan and the republicans.
Point here is Ryan isn’t working for our best interests neither is anyone else in Congress that is pushing ILLEGAL ALIEN amnesty. They only care about the party, and that party doesn’t represent us anymore!

Paul Ryan working behind the scenes to push comprehensive immigration legislation

Two weeks after the end of his failed vice-presidential bid, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) was already thinking ahead to another big fight: immigration reform. And he was thinking about it in a bipartisan way.
Ryan ran into his old friend, Rep. Luis V. Gutierrez (D-Ill.), and urged him to restart his effort to get a comprehensive immigration package through Congress. Ryan’s arguments stemmed from a religious and economic foundation, not from the huge political liability the issue had become for the Republican Party during the 2012 presidential campaign.
“You’re a Catholic; I’m a Catholic; we cannot have a permanent underclass of Americans exploited in America,” Ryan told Gutierrez, according to the Democrat’s recollection of the November discussion.
Given those sentiments, and the drubbing the GOP ticket took among Latino voters, supporters of an immigration overhaul expected Ryan to emerge as the House’s most prominent public voice on the issue.
Instead, as the issue has grown more contentious with the recent passage of a sprawling 1,200-page Senate bill, Ryan has worked quietly behind the scenes, declining to become the public face of the issue and leaving the effort without any prominent sponsors among the House GOP leadership.
The 43-year-old congressman, whose own political future remains bright enough that some regard him as a 2016 presidential contender, has been using that stature to prod Gutierrez’s bipartisan group of seven House members to keep trying for a still-elusive compromise.
He has held private meetings with members of the group and has reached out to other Republicans to try to find support for a comprehensive plan that would include a path to citizenship for the estimated 11 million immigrants already in the country illegally.
On Wednesday afternoon, Ryan made a similar plea at a special immigration meeting of the House Republican Conference. He linked stronger border security and citizenship for undocumented workers to a more vibrant economy, according to people in the room…more
