"Think again, due to chain migration and the Immigration Act of 1990 legal immigration is over 1 million a year.from your Jorden commision -"

"The CIR recommended capping all three categories and implementing an overall annual cap of 550,000.
Prioritize immediate family members over extended family: The CIR recommended limiting family-sponsored immigration to only the spouse and minor children of U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents and the parents of U.S. citizens-with a ceiling of 400,000 per year. "
about 950,000 - not too far from your million current number considering the commissions study was between 7 and 10 years ago.
"... And that doesn't include illegal immigration. "
Are you proposing to somehow include illegal migration in your caps ?
I'm in favor of all their recommendations, it keeps legal immigration somewhat generous, stops fraud and abuse that's rampant in the family chain provision, and puts legality back into the system.
Immigration policy as it stands today is out of control and Bush's guest worker proposal would make it a thousand times worse, not to mention potentially displace millions of Americans from their jobs as the H1-b program has done to tech workers.
