Considering the conditions in Haiti currently and the fact that the amnesty is only temporary, I will try to refrain from sarcastic comments about amnesties for illegal emigrant law breakers.
I don’t like it either but dumping them back in the hellhole only makes things worse there.
However, its not like they were all lined up and ready to be deported. This temporary amnesty is nothing but a ruse.
The problem is that they will not be “temporary.” We still have people from Nicaragua and El Salvador that are in “temporary” status. They will stay, dig even deeper roots, and eventually change status. Then they will sponsor their relatives thru chain migration.
There is no such thing as a temporary amnesty. No one ever gets booted out once they get this temporary protected status to live here. Then they start having children and anchor babies
I've seen this scam repeated over and over again with Guatemalans Hondurans and people from all over the Caribbean
No one ever goes home! Get it? Don't be naive!
