"They finally admitted it, this is a bill to raise revenue for the treasury."

The "set-aside" is a SPENDING bill. The "illegal immigrant amnesty" bill itself contains revenue-raising provisions--not this one.

John Kyl of Arizona and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, have proposed such an amendment.

It appears to be an amendment to the bill itself.
This is the first time I've seen any indication of how they planned to spend the $60 billion+ the bill could raise.
