SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., June 12--In a shocking turn of events, a progressive coalition of conservative and moderate congressional leaders have come together to propose new legislation which could completely redefine the meaning of the word "amnesty."
In this newly proposed "AMNESTY BILL," illegal aliens would have 120 days to leave the US without any penalty or incarceration. In other words, "amnesty" does not mean they have the right to stay, but rather that they have the "RIGHT TO LEAVE" without consequence within the 120-day "AMNESTY PERIOD."
The most surprising aspect of this "AMNESTY BILL" is that it could actually work! Proponents focus on the penalty if the illegal aliens fail to take advantage of the "AMNESTY PERIOD." If the illegal aliens do not leave the US prior to the expiration of the "AMNESTY PERIOD" they will be rounded up, finger printed and deported.
Key features of the bill:
All illegal aliens who are identified and/or deported after the expiration of the amnesty will be FOREVER barred from future entry into the US. They will never be issued a travel or work visa and they will never be allowed to ever apply for US citizenship.
Faced with the real prospects of losing any opportunity to ever come back to the US, supporters believe that most illegal aliens will leave on their own. Most agree that this "carrot and stick" approach is specifically designed to expedite the process of deportation while significantly reducing the cost thereof.
Critics have rightly pointed out that this amounts to a deportation bill. Liberals have continued to dismiss the "deportation" option as too costly and impractical to be a realistic solution to this massive immigration problem.
However, proponents are quick to point out that a number of "think tanks" such as the Heritage Foundation have estimated the actual cost to the economy will be 2 to 4 trillion higher if the estimated 12 million illegal aliens are allowed to stay or given a special path to US citizenship.
Both Sen. John Kyle and Sen. John McCain have been unavailable for comment.

makes too much sense to be true, too bad.
I’m down with this version.
Now I’d like to add my “pork” - babies born to illegal immigrants are no longer guaranteed citizenship.
you have a link to somewhere?
I like this provision, but not knowing what is in the rest of the bill, I’ll reserve judgement until everything is known about it.
oops sorry, got it
Are you sure it isn’t some attempt at satire?

This is no good. There is still no guarantee that deportations would commence after the Amnesty Period.
A joke, consider the source. No one WILL ever enforce it.
Lets move along. We need to see some enforcement of the 1986 bill first.
And here I thought that the US Constitution already said that.
2 very simple rememdies to our illegals problem.
My thoughts exactly.
Also, it would have to be proposed by a political party with some stones and where would you find that in the USA?
Sadly, it sounds like something from The Onion or Scrappleface rather than what our government is working towards.
I think it makes a lot of sense, although I favor a bit more leniency - six months seems fair to me so a guy can sell his house, liquidate his business, say bye to the the padre, etc, before he GOES HOME.
I'm sure Duncan Hunter has had to have heard of this too...
And all properties of the illegals will be seized and auctioned off.
We have so many laws now about illegal immigration, that no illegal abides by, why does any one think they are going to follow any law, when they know they are not enforced.... “I like IKE” he had the huevos to deport them,
“This is your last chance to GTFO!”
Works for me.
ROFL! Just like they are now!
