First off that heritage report is garbage those numbers come from When the entire population of Mexico is just 107 million that should tell us that we are not going to have 66 to 100 million people hear in 20 years
Second, I am not aware of any proposal that gives amnesty or a full pardon. I am aware of proposals that say after paying fines, taxes keeping ones nose clean for 12 to 15 years, learning English and other conditions that one can apply to become a citizen.
I am not familar with any proposals that give amnesty. A full pardon and full forgiveness.
Why don't you yank your head out of the sand! I was reading this thread three hours ago and your yammering gave me a headache. You are still at it. Maybe your husband should lose his Union job to illegal immigrants and take another job and have the illegal immigrants taking over that too; maybe then you'll understand!
The Senate bill doubles legal immigration to 2 million annually. That alone is 40 million in 20 years.
Then there's the massive new "guest" worker program, and it wouldn't be open to only Mexico. In fact my hunch is you'll find most of them coming from Asia. Mexicans will still be allowed in but mostly as illegal immigrants since the borders will never be gotten completely under control.
As far as the amnesty: what the Senate is proposing is the same exact thing we saw in 1986 except for one difference, Reagan called it what is was. They had penalties too, almost identical.
Illegal immigrants come from many countries besides Mexico. Most illegals also have a high birth rate. Chain migration would allow them to bring in all sorts of relatives, and other seldom discussed provisions allow most anyone to apply for a more liberal "refugee" status. We would have tens of millions of illegals here if McCain Kennedy passed. believe it or not.

In the meantime they get to stay and work here, and are not forced to leave, which is the minimum penalty for illegal entry.

So what do you call it when someone breaks the law and is rewarded with the right to stay and work here ahead of everyone else who didn't break the law? This has been pointed out to you may times and you refuse to listen.
If you want to help these poor people out, I suggest you join the Peace Core and help them in their own country. If I wanted to live in a third world crap hole I would move there, I certainly don't want it to move here and limit my choices. Buy a clue, crime and corruption are all they we will get from the third world countries, there is no benefit to us unless we have absolute control on who comes and goes, and for how long. Its called Sovereignty.
