Lol...simply breaking the laws longer allows them become a citizen....bizarre.
Would that mean that those who've been in the country ten years or less illegally would be deported? Getting really serious about those and any future invaders? No more taking in people from war torn areas? No more of this cheap-labor fiasco with green cards?
Nobody in DC is on the side of hard-working, law-abiding US citizens, either political party.
