Nearly everyone who has lived here illegally less than two years will have to return to their country of origin and apply through ordinary channels if they ever hope to live here legally. People who have lived here longer will have to pass rigorous background checks, learn English, and pay fines if they ever hope to achieve legal status.
Only an open border lover would refuse to see the hypocrisy in this and believe this is anything other than crap!
You call it "hypocrisy" and I call it "compromise".
