A beautiful dream.

This will upset Sen. Kennedy--it doesn't allow terrorists to enter.

Outstanding start....close the doors until we sort out who is already here.

"This country has lost control of its borders..."
—Ronald Reagan

"Illegal immigration is out of control."
—Leonard Chapman, former INS Commissioner

"My opinion with respect to immigration is, that except of some useful mechanics and some particular description of men and professions, there is no use of encouragement."
—George Washington, 1794

Thisis an outstanding example of the right kind of legislation which should be enacted.

Clearly Mr Tancredo and his collegues have the best interests of the American public, not special interest lobbies in mind here.

Nice start...but why does it take a full year to implement?

RE: #10 Whoops! Sorry! It was written before September 11th.

What is the status of the bill? Any buzz surrounding it?

[Joe Hadenuf]

Lock the GD doors until we find out whos in the house.

[JD86]

Thanks for the documentation. Graphics always help.

Is this a real bill? Is it actually being voted on? Or is it going to "die in committee"? This bill is long overdue, and is probably too little too late, but if it is real then it's better than nothing.

What about all of the Silicon Valley firms that are used to hiring M.S.C.S. grads from India for $30k a year? Who are they going to exploit for their cheap labor? I give this bill the proverbial snowball's chance of ever being made into a law. It wouldn't matter is %99 of the population was in favor of it and everyone sent a telegram to Congress supporting it, it still wouldn't pass as long as Corporate America wants lots and lots of cheap labor.

Still, it's a nice fantasy, but I think it's a LOT more likely that Civil War Two will break out before a bill like this ever passes.

Wonderful!

I would add this proviso: All dual citizens over 18 years of age must renounce their other citizenship to remain in the US! America First!

[F16Fighter]

The key number here is ZERO.

[Travis McGee]

Lock the doors, and clean out the house!

[Joe Hadenuf]

Lock the GD doors until we find out whos in the house.

[Joe Hadenuf]

That goes double
