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

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?

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.

I'm sitting here looking at an invitation from Martin Frost, democrat, to attend a town meeting about America's Security, I plan to attend. I think I will act all gung ho Frost until I get a chance at the mike.

I hope all Freeper's will take the time to go to these town meetings and make their voices heard.

Great bill, but now's not the right time to introduce it. Tancredo & Co. should wait until next summer, when we will be in the depths of a recession, the war will have been dragging on, and congressmen and Senators are all worried about re-election. That's when the anti-immigration message will really resonate with ordinary Americans.

I have family and extended family in Europe. Would this legislation affect their ability to visit or immigrate here legally?
