I was referring to the line formed by those entering the country legally and I understand that the line is two years long. Current illegal entrants are subject to being put at the end of this line.
The current law would require returning to the country of origin and beginning with an application. Trump and Congress may come up with a more streamlined application process for people wishing to stay when they have a clean record as far as criminality is concerned — and would be verified by current and past behavior in the States. I would apply this to all members of a family. But this would be new legislation and has not yet been submitted. The border has to be closed first.
I am against any accommodation for illegal aliens.
Changing the laws to benefit those breaking them is always bad policy.
If they want to be Americans, the line forms in their home country. anything else is rewarding them for breaking in.
The last amnesty in 1986 was supposed to be less than a million, turned out to be 3 million.
It also resulted in 10 times the number of illegal aliens.
