Right. Pardons/amnesties are limited to specific dates.

That’s why most of the calls for ‘amnesty’ are lies. Presidential pardon/amnesty means the law will be enforced following the date of the pardon. Most calls for ‘amnesty’ are calls for open borders, as proponents do not wish enforcement in the future either.
