The deal I proposed about a year ago:
1. The people covered would be Dreamers, Anchor Baby parents, and five-year+ “full” taxpayers, with exceptions (felons, those ordered deported, those who arrived after 2008, etc.).
2. To retain the right to stay, an immigrant would have to:
A. apply within 12 months and pay a $500 application processing fee to the USCIS
B. agree in writing to make donations (to be non-dischargable by federal bankruptcy law) of 10% of their pre-tax income
(minimum $300/quarter) to the Social Security Trust Fund for 27 years, starting in 2020, and then pay by estimated tax due dates via the IRS
C. obtain high-quality [better than bronze, deductible <$2,000 or that of the person’s US employer plan] health insurance coverage, meeting applicable US legal requirements, without government subsidy, except via a small employer/small employers under general law, within 12 months
D. maintain (thereafter), except for involuntary gaps not exceeding three months in any twelve, high-quality health insurance coverage, meeting applicable US legal requirements, without government subsidy, while the PPACA is on the books
E. pay a mandatory $1000 quarterly eligibility maintenance (and personal deportation abeyance) fee to USCIS by estimated tax due dates until the Constitutional amendments are fully ratified
[3% goes to USCIS, of the remainder, the first $20 billion raised goes to the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation, all the rest into the Social Security Disability Trust Fund]
F. pay all standard and expedited USCIS immigration fees within 18 months
G. pay a $2,000 amnesty service charge within 24 months to USCIS, discounted $40 for each month prior to the 24th
H. pay in full all US income tax amounts past due, get privately audited at their expense and then pass an IRS audit, all within 36 months
I. pay starting in 2020, a $500 tax shortfall fee for each quarter prior to 2017 and after 2006 the immigrant has not proven foreign residency/age of under 18 or lacked US income tax quarterly withholding of at least $400,
at the rate of $500 a quarter on US estimated tax due dates, to the IRS
J. pay a one-time, $5,000, non-refundable fee to the USDOT, to drive a motor vehicle on a US highway, always prior to doing so
3. They would get:
a. for 90 days, plus three days for each state that has ratified all of the Constitutional amendments we want
I. no apprehension of persons simply for immigration control/border security purposes at least 100 miles from a coast or national border
or within two miles of any listed USCIS office at least ten miles from a coast or national border
II. no detention simply for immigration control/border security purposes longer than 10 minutes of any applicant with specified official ID whose picture and name is available on the USCIS applicant registry system
b. thereafter, provided the immigrant has been paying and doing what the amnesty act and other federal law requires
I. no detention of qualified/approved applicants simply for immigration control purposes longer than necessary to verify the person is qualified/approved and in good standing
II. no deportation of qualified/approved applicants
4. We would get Constitutional amendments that would:
A. cap income/property taxation
B. restrain the judicial branch
C. repeal the first sentence (the citizenship by birth in USA clause) of Amendment XIV and declare that:
Every child born in the USA after ratification shall be born with the citizenship of their mother.
No foreigner may be granted US citizenship unless the foreigner is over age 22 and has paid US federal income tax [in excess of the value of two ounces of gold] on personal US earnings in each of the prior four years.
No treaty may be entered into that would require US residency/naturalization/citizenship/welfare benefits to be granted.
specify that:
D. No bill liberalizing naturalization or increasing any federal fee or imposing new federal taxation may be passed by Congress, except by contemporary roll call votes showing approval by:
a. at least 70% of the representatives in the House of Representatives and
b. at least 80% of the senators in the Senate
E. There shall be no estate taxation, except for:
a. federal estate taxation, to be used within twelve months of receipt to (help) pay off the existing national debt or that refinanced
b. existing or reduced state estate taxation
F. There shall be no other federal wealth/property taxation other than that federal estate taxation
G. Federal benefits, welfare and educational, medical and custodial care aid may be paid only from:
I. the first 10% of incomes, personal or corporate, under federal basic income taxation
II. federal alcohol/tobacco/drug/fat/sweetener/telecom taxation
III. and to reasonably provide medical benefits/financial payments to US people of at least 65 years of age:
a. flat-rate compensation taxation, equally up to 10% each on employer/employee, up to $24,000/year in total per employee
b. self-employment taxation no more than that employer/employee taxation on an after federal tax basis
c. recipient medical insurance program premiums that may vary solely by age
d. Social Security trust funds
H. There shall be no new federal loans made to private entities or natural persons, except to partially or fully refinance existing federal loan amounts at equal or better terms for the borrowers and federal government
I. Except for the refinancings under (H), no new federal loan guarantees shall be made
J. The federal government shall not issue any new pension guarantee, except on pensions payable to its veterans with at least 180 days of foreign battlefield and ground-to-air missile-defended airspace service
K. Federal regulation of the amount of private sector employee compensation shall be limited to setting monetary minimum wages, with reasonable monetary variations as Congress may selectively allow
[no more buying the votes of political interest groups at employer expense]
and provide that:
L. The President shall have line item veto power after January 20, 2021
5. An immigrant would lose the right to stay:
a. for failing to apply and pay in a timely manner, with one 60-day grace period per $5,000 paid by the immigrant in amnesty act levies
[excludes standard income tax law payments, no grace period for USDOT fee]
b. for failing to timely obtain/maintain high-quality health coverage, except for involuntary gaps not exceeding three months in any twelve, while the PPACA is on the books
c. for taking a government health insurance subsidy after 2017, if not from small business employment under general law, and not returning it within 90 days of demand
d. after committing a felony

So you want to stick it to the smokers,drinkers,and sweets eaters?
Why?
.
Also, if you have 5 families in a single family house, after 2019, you will be deported.
No offense, FRiend, but I am constantly amazed the belief that a govt that fails to uphold and adhere to the EXISTING Constitution, is going to do so w/ *MORE* lawyer-speak.
Like the 2nd (Shall NOT be fringed), there is a clause in A XIV S1 they completely ignore (...and subject to the jurisdiction thereof...), why would removing the sentence be ‘helpful’?? Zero would fall into the parameters of your solution...
Sorry, enforce the friggin’ law, as it is written. Equal Under the Law or, I say, we all start finding our own ‘holes to exploit’ as CITIZENS.
