I am very familiar with it. His solution is to send them out a week to Ellis Island centers and then bring them back for eventual citizenship.
"Under his[Pence] proposal, illegal immigrants would be required to leave the country to get a guest worker visa. They would be processed through placement centers, or what he called "Ellis Island centers," run by private U.S. firms.
Pence said the process could be completed within a week, causing minimal disruption to the immigrants and their employers. Applicants would have to go through background checks. Visas for the program would be renewable three times, for a total of six years, but only if applicants passed an English proficiency test after the first two years.
"After the third term, they have to apply for permanent legal residence or leave," said Matt Lloyd, a spokesman for Pence.
