If it walks like amnesty and quacks like amnesty, it's amnesty.

Nope. An amnesty is a one-time grant of citizenship or greencard to anyone who's been here for a while, given because they've been here for a while. That is not what's being proposed because (1) it is not a grant of citizenship or greencard (2) it doesn't matter if you've been here for a while, only that you have a qualifying job (3) it's not a one-time thing (4) it doesn't confer a permanent status.

Repeat after me... "temporary worker permit".

Y'all take it easy now, ok?

Yeah right, and I'm the King of England.

You go ahead and spin away. Maybe you'll hook the stupid ones.

Next time you get pulled over by a cop, patiently explain to him that you weren't speeding, per say, you were just going faster than the speed limit.

Good luck with that.

Take care,

Hb
