Melissa Sue Gerrits/Getty Images 21 Jul 2021 Former President Donald Trump says, “Republicans must take seriously” Democrat lawmakers’ plans to slip an amnesty for millions of illegal aliens and nationwide mail-in voting measures into a budget via reconciliation, a process that prevents the use of the filibuster and needs only 51 votes in the Senate. Trump released a statement on Wednesday, warning House and Senate Republicans of a Democrat plan to “completely change America” through the reconciliation process. “Republicans must take seriously the effort by Democrats to completely change America through the reconciliation process,” Trump said: Democrats are now suggesting that budget reconciliation can be used to pass mail-in ballot legislation as well as trying to include amnesty in their infrastructure package. The infrastructure package has little to do with infrastructure as we know it, bridges, roads, tunnels, etc., but is a dramatic expansion of government that will cost much more than the $3.5 trillion being discussed.
