Now would someone explain to me how they are going to afford college on the "low pay from jobs Americans don't want?" How about giving in-state tuition to out of state citizens?
That bill would also authorize federal officials to halt deportation of such students and allow the students to eventually become permanent U.S. residents.
And you would think the subsidized tuition (by the taxes of citizents, not illegals) would be enough, but nooooooooo, we have to throw in citizenship? Why not take the education back to Mexico or wherever, and improve their own countries? That sounds like a fair trade to me.
Mrs. Pelosi said if Mr. Bush were serious about improving the system, he would call for immediate action on the House counterpart to that Senate bill, as well as another House bill that would allow 500,000 illegal agricultural workers to become legal permanent residents.
And when those 500K discover that they don't like low paying agricultural work, and refuse to do it? Do we repeat the excercise for the next wave of migrant illegals?
Democrats also propose enhanced family-reunification provisions. They seek reinstatement of a law that would allow illegal immigrants, sponsored by immediate family members who are U.S. citizens, to stay in the United States and apply for legal status, instead of being forced to return to their home countries before seeking legal admission.
Reunification works both ways. If the trip across the border is so easy, maybe they should just drive over the border and visit those third cousins etc. instead of assuming that they can only come across the border to the US.
Certainly. We are going to give them the tuition. It's already been proposed in California and other places.
