I sure don't get it. Why doesn't our government act on this?
States are in financial trouble and yet we can't even get a bill passed here in Minnesota to have a driver's license reflect an expired visa.

We are cutting rec center hours,summer school programs, libraries, police and firefighters. I understand the need to get rid of crazy government spending but let's cut the free medical care , schooling and benefits for illegals and non citizens before you cut the things for citizens.

Last I heard we STILL have no up & running "entry-exit" on
our visas.......remember WTC bombing 1993, that's how some
were here making that plan. Ten years later, the "evil-doers" came & remained, the SAME WAY, for the 9-11 attacks.
And the "war on terror" is supposed to last for years.

But, rest assured, I'm sure DC has come together, voted, passed a law, & found the money to protect a bird in a nest somewhere, just in the last couple days.

It's been my (limited) experience that govt ALWAYS cuts the stuff that has immediate impact on the public. That way, the public finally 'comes to their senses' and says 'Gee, we really DO need to raise taxes!' This time around, maybe things are bad enough that that ploy won't work. I can hope, right?
