Actually you are half-right...

What is being offered are temporary work permits that will be able to renewed twice... (6 years).

There are heavy penalties for employers who knowingly hire undocumented workers and refuses to pay them minimum wages.

To apply for citizenship, the immigrant has to return back to the country of origin and apply for citizenship legally.

Are we rounding them up and shipping them out? No. Should we since they broke the law? Yes. Is what is being offered amnesty... Yes because they are getting a free pass from breaking the law and coming and working illegally. Are they being rewarded with "automatic citizenship." No.

I would like your thoughts on how you would handle the illegal immigration crisis. And keep your answer within the realm of reality. Remember all the obstructions that you face in our current PC culture.

First, I would lean heavily on departments that do not report and turn over illegals (police, FBI, etc.). Threaten to reduce/withdraw any Federal grants, etc.

Second, hire more agents for border patrols, tracking people that overstay their visas, etc. Maybe integrate DEA with the patrols.

Third, require sharing of information between departments/bureaus of the Dept. of Homeland Security.

I am sure that there are other things that can be done, I have not fully looked at the issue.
