thetragichippy Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago 40 minutes ago, Big girl said: Bs. It was written by a conservative Congressman The bill creates a new statutory authority for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to close the border to people seeking asylum after certain “trigger numbers” have been met. If over the course of seven days, the cumulative number of people arriving at the border (at or between ports, and regardless of whether they are actually processed for asylum) reaches 4,000, the authority is discretionary. If that number reaches 5,000 or a single day’s encounters exceed 8,500, the authority is mandatory. @Big girl - you should really read bills before you comment on them. It makes you sound uninformed...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
