Good news...there is no reason to punish the children for things their parents did illegally bringing them here. Give them a chance to work towards citizenship.

Cpl Tou Lee Yang - That is the wall, and if the economy gets started and the USMCA does what it is supposed to we save a bit of money. Enough to pay for the wall many times over. From a report by the the International Trade Commission: The ITC analysis shows that USMCA will increase U.S. employment by 176,000 jobs and is projected to increase GDP by $65.2 billion (0.35 percent). ... As a result of the Agreement, we will have stronger growth, more exports, more jobs, and rising higher wages – fulfilling the President's promise to the American people.
So.....

I didn't say it did. I am saying that a pretty effective argument could be made that renegotiating NAFTA to the USMCA does in effect make Mexico pay. I have no dog in this fight one way or another, just telling you the logical argument.
By the way the line about "fulfilling the President' promise to the American people" came directly from the ITC.

The SCOTUS appears to have agreed with lower courts, the government needs to have a justification for the policy change and that justification cannot be arbitrary or capricious.

Now Congress can work to fix legislation so that they can have a path to citizenship. Right now, DACA recipients literally can't file for citizenship.

It won't happen then either. Immigration reform is long overdue. For decades. The immigration system in the US is screwed up and convoluted.
