I am not hearing anything bad about this program. Its a plan to document the "invasion" more closely. Plus the companies have to pay a fee (hopefully a lot). Call me crazy (don't really) but it sounds to me like it calls for some civility on both sides of the immigration issue. I know its not LAND MINES -- but he didn't run on a LAND MINE platform.

American citizens not willing to take jobs. Okay..and once these people BECOME American citizens themselves, won't the cycle just repeat itself? Or will we block them from rising to our level? The obvious next crusade for the left will be equal opportunity (they twist to mean equal outcome) for these new citizens. That puts us back at square one.
The only reason these people will take those jobs is precisely BECAUSE they are illegal and afraid of being caught. Solve the problem and you perpetuate the problem.

Citizenship line is too long.
Increase annual number of green cards that leads to citizenship.

Perhaps Americans won't do migrant labor because of pay. Garbage handlers in my area earn at least $18 per hour, plus benies. Think they'd switch? If illegals didn't undercut American workers, migrant labor would pay a living wage.
To: Pro-Bush
Yeah, I'm scratching my head too.
To: Constitution Day
No, I don't. I want to find out the truth.

Prior to WWI, the German community in Indianapolis published its own German language newspapers. Many of those people who worked in the gardening district near my home never did learn English, except for a few words.
Most second generation immigrants will be assimilated.

No! This is an assertion of sovereignty. When this Admin took office we said: the grownups are now in charge. Well, the grownups have just taken charge of this problem.

I agree with you, but it is not easily seen by angry people. President Bush is willing to tackle Very hard problems. Ignoring the problem does not help anyone.

This is the first time I have turned off the TV for a President Bush speech. The illegal aliens have ruined and virtually put the State of California in bankruptcy not to mention the state of medical care is in shambles.
