You are 100% correct. I do not know what spurred Washington to such urgency in the last three months but I am glad to see it, even if I do not agree with every move they make. Any step up is better than the status quo.
I'd have to disagree with that. No action would probably be better than this amnesty they're pushing (if they ain't sending them back, it's amnesty, no matter how you want to phrase it). Once you set down the rules for them to get citizenship, we'll get even more than we are getting now.
What's the current plan? Something like having to be here for 6 years before applying? Sure, then all I have to do is cross the border and not get caught for 6 years, and then I get rewarded. Is this hide and seek or what?
