I have no real problem having a path to citizenship for current illegals as long as they meet these criteria. We simply cannot deport or even find millions of people
1. No criminal activity, even minor offenses
2. Have a real tax paying job
3. No diseases or mental illness
4. Read and converse in English at an 8th grade level
5. ABSOLUTELY no benefits at all. NONE
6. Green card until they pass citizen class
7. Cannot vote until you are a citizen
8. Three years to become citizen or you are deported.
All this only after the border is secured to keep the hordes from over running us
Yes, we should help them with their hunger strike by not letting any illegals have food until they are safely back on their home soil.
Ping!
Agree 100%. Since I didn’t get scortched to dust, I’d guess most conservatives would be OK with that plan. But as you said, AFTER the border is secured.
