The system that lets foreigners enter the United States on student visas often becomes a visa-for-sale operation that has allowed terrorists to enter the country, according to a new study from a Harvard professor.

Also yesterday, senators tried but failed to act quickly on a bill that would allow states to charge some illegal immigrants in-state tuition rates and allow illegal immigrant students to adjust their legal status.
Good for Byrd for once. It looks like all the others are bought out completely.
So pay a "school" some money, and you get a visa. What a scam! Completely corrupt. I suspect a lot of the backing comes from "trucking" and related schools who'll use this device to get cheap part time labor - at our expense.

Quite frankly, the hell with Orrin Hatch and any Republican who thinks like he does.

"Hey Orrin, which laws can I ignore? Which laws are optional, and which ones are mandatory"
(Rule of law? Anybody seen a rule of law around these parts?)
HOW MUCH WILL THIS COST THE TAXPAYERS?
How about the Federal Election Laws? Can I get a few stacks of Utah absentee ballots?
Sheeesh! You act like it's your money or something.
Kinda has that "I'm tired of this festering tar pit" look, huh?
"Bu-bye, Orrin."
