I'm against any type of blanket amnesty for these violators. But why is the government talking about citizenship? If they are going to cave in, why go that far? A resident can live here, work, go to school, etc; they just cannot vote. Do I smell something here from our traitors in congress? You bet!

The problem is that if you give them permament residency (Green Card), then they qualify to apply for citizenship after 5 years.
