They're giving a purposely low estimate. Just takes common sense to figure out a giveaway like this will attract millions of claims. After all, article acknowledges some 5 million illegals currently here. How many millions of more have been here, or will come up with a way to claim they've been here? How can we verify their claim when we never had proof they were here in the first place? Illegal alien means no background check coming or going. We don't know who's been here and who hasn't.
Sounds like there's going to be a booming business in fradulent work backgrounds. More job opportunities for the criminal element anyway.

The population of Mexico is around 100,000,000. It would not surprise me at all to have 50,000,000 cross the border the very day this is announced.
I am not exaggerating this as many of the border towns have a population of 1,000,000 or more.
