DACA Dreamers would be perfect candidates for my idea of a new class of immigration card, the “Permanent Guest Worker” card. Allows you to remain in the country, to work, and to pay taxes. But it does not allow for application for citizenship until you return to your birth country and apply for permanent residency from the back of the line.
Ideally, those with a Permanent Guest Worker card also could not convey citizenship to their children born in the U.S., but that would be more difficult to implement.
I agree - but we would need a substantial margin in both Houses to pass that
Eligible for mail in voting?
Sarcasm aside, any illegal who votes, or attempts to vote, should be immediately expelled, even while returning home from the mailbox,.
See, I like this idea and I don’t see it talked about. I think it’s perfectly fair to stipulate that actions have consequences.
Basically saying, we’re sorry your parents broke the law and brought you illegally into the country, but while we are sensitive to the fact that the USA is the only country you know, we are a nation of laws. As actions have consequences, you may obtain permanent guest worker status at most, unless you return to your country of origin and apply at the end of the line.
I think that’s perfectly fair and a good compromise.
What is the point of all that? We havw far, far too many illegals here now, dropping anchor babies by the minute.
They all need to go home and then maybe in about a decade we will be ready to start absorbing new people again.
