Giving illegal aliens these benefits only assures us that they are going to pour into this country at faster rates. You don't reward criminals and I'm sick of politicians ignoring what the people of THIS country want.

BTW.....illegal aliens have murdered US citizens and Mexico refuses to hand these people over. You can't have it both ways. You can't expect to work and live here if you are not going to be held accountable to the laws like everyone else is.

And just what benefit is that...paying a $1500 fine for breaking the immigration law...you consider that a benefit? And any illegal currently in the US who does not apply for the guest worker program by the deadline will not be eligible for anything but deportation. What they are trying to do is clear up the backlog at the INS so that they can concentrate on the criminal element amongst the illegals, namely those that will NOT apply for this program. Yes, there is an extradition problem with Mexico, but that has more to do with the death penalty than illegal immigration and if we can clear up some of the backlog at INS, and create a database with the info provided by the illegals during registration for this program (fingerprints, photos) that will make it easier to catch those that commit crimes, we will be better off.
