Everyone needs to contact their respective U.S.Senators and Congressman and let them know where you stand on this issue. Pressure, pressure, pressure. A country that does not control it's borders or enforces it's laws doesn't have much of a future. America's system of assimilation worked because it controlled the number and quality of those it admitted; it doesn't appear to be doing much of either over the past 30 years. This IS a highly emotional wedge issue that the seething Democrats will gladly sink their teeth into full speed. Regardless, what matters is the picture in the long run. The little people who are most directly affected by uncontrolled immigration are the ones that kept Bush in; he, and all the big people of the Republican party, have to be reminded, repeatedly, of that.

BTW, all the rules governing immigration didn't even begin until the 1920s.

Assimilation had been taking place for more than 300 years without rules.

That's a clue ~

Yep, GWB (& friends) knew a year ago that most Americans were against his "proposal", yet they have not pushed to remove any of the *incentives* we have (and there are many) to be here illegally.

How 'bout closing the revolving door at the border ?? First time your caught entering illegally, you may never apply to ever come legally.

Address the 'anchor baby issue', make at least one of the parents be a US citizen.

Build fed 'tent jails' in each border state, for first time, non violent illegal criminals. Let them work for 'good time', for early release & deportation. They could do trash picks & build road blocks in areas where the drug loads are driven in & the hot cars are driven out.

Make the SS verification mandatory for all employers to use, and actually fine those not using it.

(just to name a few)

But they have done nothing, except to wait another year, & repeat the same proposal. (and expect citizens to accept it this time.) Meanwhile, another million have walked in.

Citizens (VOTERS) want to hear that millions of illegals are getting LESS (not more).

(ya know, it's our tax dollars that fund all these incentives)
