As I said - repeatedly - while there may be some good things in the bill that doesn't change the fact that there's an overwhelming number of BAD things in the bill so as to ruin it.

What BAD things are in the bill? All you've pointed out is that the good things aren't big enough, or last long enough, for your liking. The operative points of the bill are to tighten asylum criteria, increase border patrol funding, increase immigration judges, shift many cases out of judges into administrative processes so they can go faster, and increase detention facilities. Again, without any of the things that Democrats always insist on, like protecting DREAMERS from being thrown out of the country.

You're being offered Wagyu steak that's smaller than you'd like - but not a pile of sh!t.
