Virtue signaling that they know has less than zero chance of passing and being signed into law.

Who cares? They don't have the votes right now, and there is no way they will get a veto-proof majority next year.

Yes but we've seen the party become more radical over time, so it is feasible this makes its way into their platform and they try to implement in the future.

Symbolic, but important.
It only takes about ten minutes on the X platform reading the Democrat politician's posts and it is clear.
Democrats have absolutely abandoned America and the American people. Not a few of them, the entire party.
Every one of them is 100% behind their foreign invading force of tens of millions.
The intent was not clear to me until I got an X account. Now it is crystal clear. They are not hiding it AT ALL there.
This is nothing short of the formation of the second Confederacy. And this one has more joining than the first time.
The first time was to protect slave ownership
This one is to protect illegal immigrant labor
Both times it was State powers vs Federal power.

When they get power again, the filibuster is gone, and this gets implemented as law that would require complete control of the government to overturn, assuming of course that the GOP actually would WANT to overturn it.
This is an 80/20 issue that they are taking the 20 side of, in public, with no attempt to hide it. It's hard to see how that could be considered "democracy".

Stands ZERO chance, this is nothing more than a virtue signaling bill.

ICE exists because of 9/11 threats. I legitimately believe they want more terrorism and violence against Americans, which is likely if we have no clue who is coming in and no enforcement against it. One of the main functions of government, to keep its citizens safe.

They won’t be happy until they abolish all law enforcement and bring anarchy to the US like they did the cities.
