Existing Illegals in US problem can be solved by establishing the procedure for existing Illegals to come out of shadow and register, give those about 1 or 2 years to do so. That would give them working permit – visas, say for 3 years and chance to apply for resident status. Will have to pay taxes and keep registering their whereabouts and employment. One time exemption – "resident amnesty" to become Resident Alien (not citizen) for those who entered US before, say 2012, others would have to go back and apply from their home country. This is to avoid influx of fresh illegals. It would be humane to give chance to those who are here for longer time, with families, actively involved in American life and not being criminals. This would be gesture and recognition by government for failing of handling the (ID) requirements in the past. Definitely cheaper and more practical than assembling army of overpaid agents to collect and deport all illegals. With upcoming revival of American economy, US can use existing workers, versus inefficient procedures to handle fresh workers and immigrants. Criminals, or those illegally crossing more than once, should be deported and barred from future working permits or resident visas.
Government should set up immigration offices in states, staffed with capable people, set up proper procedures and handle applications efficiently. Expanded Motor Vehicle offices can be used as a base for issuing and tracking ID of all temporary aliens and visitors. You got here – you have to register and notify where you are. Everybody has to have proper ID documents. Employers should be required to employ only workers with valid legal status or working permit. Otherwise heavy fines and penalties. States to enforce the law. There should be no one in the country that has no proper documentation. No "sanctuary cities"!
The situation with illegal immigration was caused by government failure to administer and enforce the proper system, regulations, after President Reagan’s amnesty. Government bureaucracy is responsible for the mess for failing to implement proper issuing of IDs and tracking of residents and visitors, for failure to properly implement the measures to rectify the situation we are in today, when illegals and criminals can kill innocent people, enter country multiple times and hide in “sanctuary cities”. In the past we have seen government departments being infested by incapable people, cronies of politicians. The result is the horrible inefficiency and problems plaguing our every day’s lives. Waste, mismanagement, cronyism, injustice are causing once great America to slide to mediocracy and socialist hell. There is a need for surgery and cleanup of government bureaucracy, bringing in people with business experience and work ethics, and removing the entrenched bureaucrats. No need for immigration lottery and chain immigration, bring in people who can contribute to growth and prosperity for all. Otherwise, there will be no end to decline of this once great country. Cleanup the government! Drain the swamp! No excuses for color, minority, sex orientation for hiring incapable workers.
Mandatory ID system. Everyone on US soil should have proper ID card according to their status. Only people with proper ID are allowed to stay in US, hold the job or attend institution and obey the US laws. If you like Sharia, go to Middle East and enjoy it. No ID? You overstay your permitted time? You will be deported and barred from future entries. Classes of ID, could be combined with driver licenses, all required to register their whereabouts: A. US citizens – issued citizen’s ID card, blue color and US passports if requested, eligible to vote in US elections. B. Permanent residents – (Resident Aliens) issued or having “green cards” ID card, green color, allowing life time residency. No US passport or voting rights. C. Temporary students – issued temporary student ID card, yellow color, showing expiration date. D. Temporary workers – issued temporary worker ID card, orange color, showing expiration date. E. Visitors – have passports and proper visas, could be issued visitor’s ID card, red color. F. ???? – as needed
All ID cards have photo, finger print, tracking (Soc. Security) number and personal information allowing quick check of person’s status. Country of origin or previous residence/citizenship code can also be included. Central registry verification available if needed with click of a scanner.
Establish the laws that are reasonable and ENFORCE them! Now in the computer age, there is no problem of recording and tracking goods and people. If Amazon and Google can track my package at any time, there should be no problem to track people, their whereabouts, employment, legal status. It is time to issue ID cards besides driver licenses for those that do not drive, after verification of their legal status – citizen, resident alien or temporary worker. Have also verification system, where anyone can verify validity of the ID card if necessary and to avoid forged cards. Those who illegally entered the US before 2012 can be issued Permanent Resident status and ID, but NEVER allowed to gain citizenship and voting rights as a “punishment”. (Or allow longer time to become citizen if conditions fulfilled.) Their children, born in US can be eligible for citizenship, if no criminal records. Those who illegally entered the US after say, 2012, should be required to return to home country and apply for legal ID and undergo proper procedure. Those with criminal record, ISIS affiliation and multiple illegal entries need not apply.
Bring the manufacturing back to US – lower the taxes, bring the bright and capable workers, technicians and engineers, build the base for the upcoming technology explosion boom. Use the existing legalized “illegals” base. Fix the bureaucracy; establish ID system and ENFORCE IT! Recent tax law changes and Executive Orders by President Trump get economy moving, unemployment has dropped and America can use positive work force already here. If more temporary workers are needed, inefficient immigration bureaucrats need to be fired and replaced with bright officials.
Simple system of issuing working permits to foreigners: Is there need for you in US? Have job offered? Show documentation and apply for it, specify period of employment. Government OFFICE verifies it (phone call, email) and if legit, issues the visas and/or working permit. Applicant arrives at the workplace, registers with the OFFICE, works and pays taxes. If needs extension, applies and gets it granted or not. Stays or not.
If there is a need for worker, he can apply for resident status and if demonstrated benefit to US, can apply for citizenship and stay here forever, with family, and contribute to making America Great Again! I just can’t see why this cannot be implemented. Government screwed up and needs to fix it. Just ask anyone who had to go through the Immigration Dept. “procedures”! Be humane and allow those who are here already (before 2012?) to stay, register, legalize their status HERE within few years, come out of hiding. Cheaper and more practical than trying to catch them all, deport and spend another few years to come back legally. Issue ID cards, register and track whereabouts and status of visitors and temporary workers. Require employers to employ only documented people. After grace period, deport anyone not having proper ID and legalized status.
Border protection, instead of expensive wall, can be implemented by simpler barbed wire fences and automated patrolling by electronic surveillance, drones and having border guards or reservists stationed close to the popular illegal border crossings. The wall on the border can help, but it is not the SOLUTION to the illegals staying in the US. Tunnels and ladders can help to get around the wall. See the German inventor flying over billion dollar wall in the home made few dollar bathtub drone: https://www.facebook.com/diplytech/videos/1102304213244514/ What is needed is to remove the attraction for people coming into US illegally, staying illegally and working illegally – everyone should have valid ID. No ID or legal status to stay on US soil? Deport and penalize those enabling it. Today’s technology allows to efficiently issue ID cards and to verify and track them. This will also solve the “racist” voter registration problem. Are you a citizen? Have your citizen’s ID or passport? No problem – you can vote in American elections – one time! Easy to track and put the end to fraudulent ballot stuffing. You don’t have citizen’s ID? You have no right to vote for government to represent or control you. Nothing racist! Cheaper, logical and humane solution to fix the immigration problem once and for all. Demand it!

P.S. I have tried to publicize and disseminate this article for over a year. It was sent to President’s Office, talk show hosts, tried to call the shows, but it looks like the WALL of swamp critters is stopping the sanity. Talking heads and crooked politicians keep talking about “Immigration Problem,” Republicans like cheap labor, Democrats like free confused voters. Lying media is busy with two scoops of ice cream and Russians voting in US. Is there ANYONE who can bring this proposal to fruition, discussion? Smuggle it to Mr. Trump’s office, Congress, Senate???
frustrated, deplorable, taxpayer YB
“final solution”?
Poor choice of words or...
No amnesty.
We tried that in 1986 and it resulted in 10 times the number of illegal aliens.
Turn off the magnet.
Cut off employment and benefits.
They’ll go home on their own.
Article is way too long. Based on first paragraph - No!
Deport all illegal aliens and restore the Rule of Law. Period.
Yuri, the reason that no one will pay attention to your plan is that it is stupid. What makes you think that anyone will comply with it, any more than they comply with existing immigration laws?
Build the wall; deport them all.
If you came illegally, you don’t vote ... ever! You STOLE from us and that’s the downside.
It would finally eliminate “Illegal Immigration”, Voter Fraud problem, lower the need for walls, weed out illegal from legal immigrants and fix the problem of politicians yapping about it.
Are you legal, have ID? OK you welcome.
Are you illegal here now, get the chance to legalize and become RESIDENT ALIEN. No Citizenship ever.
Wanna vote? Show ID.
Don’t have ID after grace period? Not legalized? Get sent home.
Reagan gave amnesty, government SCREWED UP, time to fix it!
I would have brainstormed that title a bit more...A lot more...
Einsatzgruppen!
Trump should tell dems give all the money for border or he will order dhs to arrest every alien in sight
Another day, another globalist screed from the McCain wing of American politics.
I think we can label this a fake news site attempting to label Conservatives as Nazis.
Establish a ‘procedure’ with a background check that mandates checking for all applications and cross checking voter registration rolls. If someone who is here illegally is also stealing an American’s constitutional right to vote by violating election law ...GOODBYE!
Final solution to the illegal immigrant problem.
Problem being the key word rather than question.
Has more of a Sherman slant to it than a Hitler one.
Or the site might be neonazi types.
“Final solution to the Illegal Immigration and Voter Fraud problems.”
We need an “endlosung” to this crap all right.
That’s an awful lot of accommodating for people who already broke the law coming here. Absolutely no reason to believe they would follow ANY NEW requirements. Just plain foolishness! IF anything ever gets done, it has to be cut and dried and as simple as ABC or XYZ! Has to be made clear enough so others thinking of coming here ILLEGALLY think twice about it!!
Give illegals grace period say 2 years to come out and REGISTER, get ID, go through process to become RESIDENT, not ever citizen!!
After 2 years if you can’t produce ID, then deported.
Decent “illegals” will come out and get processed, they want to become at least residents, have family and kids in school and are not criminals.
One time chance!
No need to clime the wall, without legal ID - deportation.
“One Time Exemption”
Bwahahahahaha
