Green Card: Gives you official immigration status (Lawful Permanent Residency) in the United States.
Gold Card: A work permit that would allow illegal immigrants to stay and work in the United States after they complete a background check. Does not include a special path to citizenship.
Blue Card: A work permit specifically for agriculture workers. As many as 900,000 undocumented agriculture employees would be eligible.
Whoever named it "The gold card" either wanted it to fail or was a moron.
Gold Card. I like the sound of it.
Kinda like "Outta the way, moron, I got a GOLD Card, I'm a V.I.P. Waiting in line to get into the United States is for suckers and peons. Now lemme in and which way to the hand outs?"
Owl_Eagle(If what I just wrote makes you sad or angry,
You left out Race Card - to be played against critics of the Gold Card and Blue Card plans.
Just why is it congress, that there is a legal way to enter the country, but not many want to use it?
What is the ratio between legal, and illegal entrants?
What is wrong with treating illegal immigrants, based on the laws of the land?
Why is it that our government chooses to completely ignore the illegal immigration into the country?
Just why is it that legislators waste their time and ours attempting to legalize in some paper shuffling way, the illegal immigrant?
More questions to come when these are answered.
It's amazing how "we want you to enter this country legally" becomes "we don't want you to be one of us."

out out damn double post.
The president's pet project, a massive guest worker program with six-year temporary cards, will be overseen by an agency already strapped with an alphabet soup of temporary worker plans, already impossible to enforce.
In fact, the new director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service, Emilio Gonzalez, during his Senate confirmation process said, quote, "I don't think the system's -- in fact, I know the systems that exists right now wouldn't be able to handle it."

Ping!
I like your screen name. Too bad we are held hostage by our politicians and will never experience freedom through truth. The prerequisite to being elected is to learn how to deceive and lie.
Red card: The card of the liberal free traitor gloabists like Jorge Arbusto.
It may simply be a means to register and identify illegal immigrants. That way, at a later date, the government can do somehting about it. But until there is sufficient bait, like this gold card, to get illegals to be identified by immigration, we can't do anything about deporting them. It's like firearms registration. First you register, then the government comes for your guns. In this case, first you register, then later, the government deports you.
Thanks. I joined when Clinton was President. It was a natural response to his perfidy.
what else is new and committing crimes and going to jail is a way of a giving them a handout. unbelievable
