Between this and only having to “indicate an intention to apply” for protection, would’ve have been a big lowering of the barrier to being let in and released, no?

Good grief–it was so not an “enforcement-only” bill. Also had extra green cards; work authorization; “documented Dreamers;” mandated 1,400/day asylum processing. Generally ratifies high level of migration. Amazed @AlecMacGillis falls for that. (See https://t.co/lolbGuOv4S) https://t.co/jga6mDInpS

I’d missed this big wrinkle: Apparently you wouldn’t even have to pass a “credible fear” test to be released — just “indicate…an intention to apply for a protection determination.” https://t.co/rUaMlhAolH

I’m tired, but this seems like maybe a good idea-for the House, if not Senate. And if it could pass. Dems couldn’t say Republicans didn’t try. But it might increase the possibility of a conference (or Senate amending the bill and sending it back to House) no? That could be bad https://t.co/VjSVxX3LxA
