Napolitano Rejects 'Secure Border' Precondition for Progress on Immigration Reform Bill
"An animated Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano today said the need to intensify efforts to secure the southwest border should not be a precondition for progress on comprehensive immigration reform.
She made the comments after at least one Senate Republican suggested the White House was holding off on implementing stronger enforcement measures so that they could be a bargaining chip to lure Republicans to the table.
"The notion that you’re going to somehow seal the border and only at that point will you discuss immigration reform – that is not an answer to the problem,” she said."
As I understand it, she's not interested in enforcing a Federal law until they get the political outcome they want. As I've said often before this administration has no use for the rule of law only the rule of power.
