Bravo to Kate for her piece today on the latest amnesty scheme, called the Dream Act, that Dick Durbin is trying to attach to the defense authorization bill. The invaluable Kris Kobach (how about him for attorney general?) has done an overview of the bill and its implications for Heritage. Ted Kennedy is going to try to attach to the same bill a measure to speed the admission of Iraqis fleeing our nation-building efforts (see the end of this story), the result of which can only be watered-down security screening and the admission of terrorists. Other senators are going to try to append the SKIL Bill to the same defense measure, because I guess entry-level, low-skill computer work is a job Americans won’t do. And when the farm bill comes up later this month, Larry Craig will try to add the AgJobs bill, assuming he doesn’t actually quit to look for the real toe-tapper.
