You should be aware that ICE is still processing immigrants resulting from the 1986 amnesty.
Thanks to Teddy Kennedy, our immigration laws now contain a provision for "chain immigration", whereby any immigrant citizen may apply to bring his "immediate" family into the country. "Immediate" includes fathers, mothers, grandparents, great-grandparents, children, brothers, sisters, etc.. Each of them then have the right to invite their immediate family into the country -- so we end up with the cousins, aunts and uncles, as well.
The beneficiaries of any amnesty now will enjoy the same right of chain immigration. In other words, it won't be "15 million" -- it will be 50 million.
Almost exactly right, okie.
Just saw the figure yesterday in a CIS.org essay.
They estimate each original immigrant will bring 2.1 family immigrants.
They estimate 12 million amnesty citizens plus 25 million more new citizens from chain migration.
Most would come from Central America.
Their education and skill level will be shocking.
52% will not have a high school education.
Worst of all, 80% of first generation Hispanics vote for the Democrat Party.
