The perpetual advice to Democrats is that moving rightward will solve all their problems. But look where the party is at the moment: already embracing Republican affect and policies, yet still losing.
TBF the parties swapped in the 1960s and finished polarizing in the 90s so in the 1980s some rebublicans were pro immigrant and pro union.
The Immigration Reform and Control Act was passed by the 99th United States Congress and signed into law by U.S. President Ronald Reagan on November 6, 1986. The Immigration Reform and Control Act legalized most undocumented immigrants who had arrived in the country prior to January 1, 1982.
This is correct. They’ve “moderated” their views so many times over the years that they are only distinguishable from Reagan Republicans because of their stance on abortion.
And people are even calling for Dems to be more “pro-life” in order to further appeal to “moderates.” It’s absurd.
Democrats now are where Republicans were in the 80s
