I’m not so sure. They’re going to debate and wrangle and talk over all these details, and eventually convince themselves they’ve done something good. The details, as to whether it’s 100,000, 500,000 guest workers, whether illegals have to touchback or not, whether it’s one day or one week to conduct the background checks are all IRRELEVANT. They will try to convince us it a great bill, but will all know they are not going to enforce ANY of it. Other than to issue the probationary visas, which in absence of any enforcement, are de facto citizenship.

all IRRELEVANT.

Anything that includes a "path toward citizenship" is DOA.

Anything that permits "family reunification" for the 15 to 20 million illegals now here is DOA (you want an additional 20 to 40 million "families" with unverifiable Mexican marriage licenses, birth certificates, and other false documentation?)

I'll accept "three years, three years, and go home." I'll accept "You made the decision to work in America, your family will have to wait for you to come home to Mexico."
