Republican Darrell Issa To Unveil Bill Giving 6-Year Legal Status To Undocumented Immigrants
Latin Times ^ | 10/24/13 | David Iaconangelo

Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), chair of the Oversight and Government Reform Committee in the House of Representatives, says he has plans to unveil what he calls a "come-from-the-shadows" bill on immigration which would extend a 6-year legal status to many of the nation's 11.7 million undocumented immigrants and allow them to travel freely to their country of origin. The House Republican told Politico on Wednesday that the proposal was "halfway between full amnesty and simply rejecting people", adding, "I think if we're going to break this logjam that's occurred for my whole 13 years I've been in Congress, we have to find middle ground."

Issa, whose southern California district is about 30 percent Hispanic and 17 percent foreign-born, has long been seen by immigrant advocates as a moderate voice among the Tea Party-heavy Republican caucus in the House. America's Voice, the biggest immigrant-advocacy group in the nation, counts him on a list of 28 House GOP members who support immigration reform with a path to citizenship for the undocumented.

They can have legal status any time they want it by returning to their home country and taking their children with them.

GOP isn’t called the Stupid Party for nothing. Obamacare is sucking all the air out of the media and Issa decides to open a huge window. Idiot.

Issa and his fellow corporatists can go straight to hell.

These bastards are relentless when it comes to inflicting pain on TAXPAYING working American Citizens.

No American citizen gives a rats ass about the plight of illegal alien CRIMINALS, and will not stand to see their wages further eroded by an increase in the labor supply by 30 million illegals, not to mention the tax hikes to pay for the illegals welfare.

Issa is playing with FIRE.

REP. RAUL LABRADOR (R-ID)

Labrador, you lying bastard.

I asked him point blank what his position was on illegal aliens, and he stood there and lied right to my face.

Wow. And I thought Issa had America’s best interest at heart. My mistake. Issa, you are part if the problem! I guess we know now why his F n F and Benghazi Hearings have gone nowhere. OUR IMMIGRATION SYSTEM IS NOT BROKEN....IT IS SIMPLY NOT ENFORCED!!! What makes you think any ‘fix’ will be enforced the way you write it???

And what will happen when the 6 years expire?

It will be extended, of course.

So what is the difference?
