Actually, any pathway to citizenship is more than amnesty. Amnesty would merely let folks off from a penalty or a crime they committed — entering the U.S. illegally, using fake documents to obtain employment, whatever — giving a path to citizenship, unless it’s identical to that available to people outside the country applying in the normal procedure, actually rewards them for committing the crime, not merely lets them off.

If the RNC had half a brain they would get back to the basics of what US immigration policy should be all about. We are one of the few countries in the world that does not secure it borders-- sheer insanity.

Immigration policy should be based on only what an immigrant can do for this country not what we can do for them.

There a two billion people around the world that would like to come here WTH! We can't take even a fraction of them. We need to orient immigration policy only around what immigrants can do for us. Plus we need immigrants who want to be part of the US and its way of life not transporting their way of life here!! That's all BS.
