WE DO NOT. Anyone who is in the US illegally, is taking jobs US citizens need, and serving to undermine decent wages and full time work knows that they're breaking the law. If they don't self-deport, they should never be allowed in the US again.
The only "pathway to citizenship" is from their homelands, and only if the US at some point in our future actually runs out of unemployed people.
Please don't speak for those of us who are disgusted with invaders and who think they're all CRIMINALS just by being in the US.
Read what I said again.
I do not differ with you. People who come here should be sponsored, like they were in the 20th century. That means that their sponsors should agree to subsidize their expenses until they get on their own feet and should suppply them with a job. They should pass health and education tests. Any law breaking should ensure a ticket back home immediately. They need to pass a citizenship and English test in order to become a voter. No exceptions.
Non citizen permanent residents used to have to register with the government every January. Whatever happened to that requirement?
