What is your actual objection to any of these changes? They all make the system tighter against migrants. Which is why migrant advocacy groups are pissed that almost everything in the bill makes the system harder for their constituents. In every aspect, it tightens the screws at the border. - Lapsody

Dope can give you his thoughts, but as for me I was working hard to be open minded. More or less on the basis of the tool can wielded lightly or aggressively by a president, and not expecting much from Biden, I could look forward to the Trump admin being more strident, the important thing was the tool comes into existence. I further rationalized, this may be the best compromise because how aggressively the tool will be used
will reflect the will of the people, as expressed by who they elect as president.


The actual bill, as released, limits the tools existence to three years, when it is very likely to take three years or more to ramp up the processes and achieve a wobbly equilibrium under the new rules.

If the Bill will improve all the things that proponents claim, then why on earth did they include a three year sunset or steadily declining caps on the number of shutdown days allowed? Methinks skullduggery is afoot. Anyway, I still remain ever hopeful the amendment process will be allowed to put some lipstick on this pig.
