A group of seven House Republicans led by Rep. Maria Salazar (R-Fla.) have unveiled a bill that would make almost every illegal alien in the United States, as many as 22 million, eligible for green cards and a pathway to citizenship even as the country grapples with unprecedented levels of illegal immigration along its southern border.
The legislation would put some restrictions on a pathway to citizenship for the millions of illegal aliens residing in the United States, and would trade amnesty for stricter enforcement of immigration law, but would still be the most expansive amnesty bill ever passed if it were to make it to President Joe Biden’s desk.
Illegal aliens, under the so-called “Dignity Act,” (H.R. 6637) would be required to pay a one-time fine of $10,000 over 10 years and to successfully pass a criminal background check before they could move toward citizenship. They would also be barred from taking advantage of any welfare services.
In addition, the bill would attempt to tighten the enforcement of immigration law, similar to an immigration bill passed by President Ronald Reagan.
That bill, the most expansive amnesty bill ever passed in U.S. history, was the Immigration Reform and Control Act, which Reagan signed into law in 1986. Reagan’s immigration bill gave amnesty to around three million illegal immigrants.
H.R. 6637 would far exceed that total, though estimates as to the total number of illegal aliens in the country range dramatically.

Freepers have seen this movie before. At least ten times. We all know that the amnesties kick in and real border enforcement never does. I mean the kind that locks the Mexican border down tight as a steel door. This familiar cycle started with the first fraudulent amnesty signed by Ronald Reagan. Plus it was predicted 2 million illegals would apply for the RR amnesty. In the end, after 12 years of communist lawyer litigation.... 4 million got amnesty.
RE: Then she is somehoe not in the List in bold?
The sentence in the article in bold starts with “Salazar’s bill is cosponsored by ....”.
If you introduced the bill, it goes without saying you are the LEADER of the group.
Which is why we MUST replace EVERY Bush League Republican.
How would that one-time fine of $10K begin to pay back U.S. taxpayers for the hundreds of thousands of welfare benefits these lazy freeloading scum would collect over the decades spent here? These RINOs should be strung up.

She’s NOT in the list....
Minor point, but true....
If every one of these traitors are not turned out in the primary, we will lose our country.
Under Reagan, they granted amnesty immediately and promised enforcement down the road.
Then they never got around to enforcement.
RE: She’s NOT in the list....
6 co-sponsors + 1 ( the bill’s main sponsor ) = 7
The title of the article is right.
22 million? More likely 30 to 40 million...
Absurd!
Hogwash!
BS!
There are between 45 million and 55 million MIVs currently inside the U.S.
They will be voting in the coming presidential election...
There is nothing, and no one, to stop them...
At least a couple million of them voted, already, in 2020...
As the saying goes, once you get the head in, the rest is easy...
Vote them out. Plain and simple.
“11 to 22 million”
More like 40-60 million.
1st paragraph of the article
I keep waiting for the “HOW WE ARE GOING TO REMOVE THEM FROM THE COUNTRY”
Do they actually think illegals will take the time to vote. LOL R’s idea will backfire. They won’t vote for them either!
This makes me sick.
If every one of these traitors are not turned out in the primary, we will lose our country.
Tom Reed is not running for re-election.
He got into a bit of trouble thinking he could imitate Fonzie.
“How would that one-time fine of $10K begin to pay back U.S. taxpayers for the hundreds of thousands of welfare benefits these lazy freeloading scum would collect over the decades spent here?”
Now let’s factor in what monies have been sent south of the border in just one year, five years, ten years, etc.
“Vote them out. Plain and simple.”
LOL.... good luck with that. See 2020, 2018, etc.
