This amendment by Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) to S. Amdt. 1959 to the Broader Options for Americans Act (H.R. 2579) would have placed unnecessary burdens on law enforcement agents and establish draconian law enforcement scenarios for aspiring immigrants. Cloture on the amendment failed on Feb. 15, 2018.

This is Bad for working people.
