He is talking about a variation on the old Bracero program.

Sort of.

But in this case he would legally allow somewhere between 12 million and 30 million illegals to live here. They wouldn't be required to leave after the crops are harvested or the job ends.

The program would grant legal resident status, regardless of what new word-twisting labels are applied to cloak the truth.

This proposed program is amnesty by definition.

No that’s NOT how it works. They received a card for SPECIFIC time frame. If you read my link it explains the process. 6 or 18 months was the limit. anyone overstaying became an illegal. Just like people who overstay their visa no matter what country they come from.

I would back it if it required farmers to pay min wage. THAT would kill the hiring immediately. But if they did agree to that, the income tax deductions would become mandatory. HE HE

It has it’s up side. But again it has to have a sealed border to work.
