It is once again, easy to see where the priorities of the Democrats lay. It is not with the American people, but with people who are in the country illegally.
Townhall reports:
Democrats (Again) Side With Criminal Illegal Aliens in Amnesty Bill
Yesterday Democrats voted to give full citizenship to nearly three million people. The majority of those covered by the legislation were brought to the United States illegally by their parents. Others entered the country illegally as adults.
House Democrats held a presser ahead of passing the American Dream and Promise Act, which would offer a pathway to citizenship for people within DACA, TPS, DED and similarly situated immigrants who've spent much of their lives in the U.S. pic.twitter.com/0jILlOpWNT

According to Rep. Steve Scalise, this bill goes even further than past attempts:
Democrats' new "Dream Act" is only a dream for criminals:
→ Blocks access to state and federal gang databases
→ Prevents felons and gang members from being referred to ICE for deportation
→ Grants amnesty to violent criminals
→ Provides $0 for border security— Steve Scalise (@SteveScalise) June 4, 2019

It's simple: Republicans want safety from crime, and Democrats want sanctuary for criminals. Democrats’ amnesty-for-all bill today is an embarrassment. It provides $0 to solve the humanitarian and security crisis at the border, yet costs $35 billion & grants amnesty to criminals. pic.twitter.com/BesmyfaG93

Of course, a handful of RINOs joined the Democrats in passing this.
CBS News reports:
House passes latest DREAM Act, hoping to place millions of immigrants on path to citizenship
With a handful of Republican votes, House Democrats passed the latest version of the DREAM Act, an ambitious expansion of a nearly two-decades-long legislative effort that would place millions of young undocumented immigrants and immigrants with temporary status on a pathway to U.S. citizenship.
The Democratic-led chamber approved the sweeping immigration bill, dubbed the DREAM and Promise Act of 2019, by a vote of 237 to 187, sending the legislation to the Republican-controlled Senate, which is unlikely to consider it. The White House has also issued a veto threat against the measure.
Seven Republicans in the House joined 230 Democrats in voting for the bill. No Democrats voted against the measure.
What a disgrace.
Democrats are trying to create new voters for their party and some Republicans are actually trying to help them do it.
