Cornyn described his proposal as a moderate approach that would bring undocumented workers "out of the shadows" and give them jobs without granting blanket amnesty and U.S. citizenship. Immigrant guest workers could stay a maximum of three years and then apply for "green cards" to become permanent residents in the United States.
This is the big lie. Senator Cornyn (R-Tx) is proposing an Illegal Alien Amnesty in stages, even as he parrots the "without granting blanket amnesty" misdirection that we've been hearing from certain Republican politicians, from the White House on down.
Anytime a politician speaks against "blanket Amnesty," as opposed to "any Amnesty," that politician's statement should be parsed as a declaration of support for some sort of Amnesty for Illegal Aliens.
The reason for the pretense is obvious: politicians don't want the American public to realize that they've thrown in with the Illegals.
Way to go, Sen. Cornyn! A true freedom lover and free marketeer like the great man he replaced. Awesome news for freedom-loving Texans like myself.
These idiot Congressmen must have pro immigration people writing their bills and then blowing smoke up their butts.
This thing has so many loopholes and flaws in it, it is ridicules.

Once you’ve given them a Green Card, you’ve given them Citizenship you bozo.
Cornyn said that his bill, titled the Border Security and Immigration Reform Act of 2003, seeks to control the problem by requiring undocumented workers to apply for the guest worker program within a year after its enactment.
Those who fail to apply would be subject to deportation and civil penalties. The bill also would impose sanctions on employers who continue to hire undocumented workers.
How are you going to enforce it? If we can’t kick them out now, how is your bill going to kick them out one year after it’s enacted?
We have sanctions now for people that employee illegals, but we don’t enforce them. Unless you hire 10,000 new agents to enforce employer sanctions, your bill will just be one more law that won’t be enforced.
This is nothing but a plan to reward criminals here in the US.
AMNESTY IS AMNESTY, NO MATER HOW YOU SUGAR COAT IT.
Obviously he's catering to the flood of legal and illegal Mexicans into Texas. He wants to be re-elected and this is what his advisors told him to do.
This proposal has been on Cornyn's website for at least a month now.
