How is this not bad. They are still telling the illegal immigrants it is ok if you break the law. We will let you stay anyway. Congress is rewarding them for breaking the law. It is nothing more then Amnesty.

They are still telling the illegal immigrants it is ok if you break the law.

And the usual punishment for breaking this law is basically a free meal and a free ride back across the border. These "lawbreakers" face no real punishment at any time anyway so something needed to be done to get some control over this issue. I applaud our President for taking on this tough issue which wins him no brownie points from anyone just like he tried to do with Social Security.

That is called leadership and I for one am proud to have voted him into office.

Does anyone know how it will be determined who has been in US for 1 year, 5 years, 10 years....???

Will it be 'take my word, i've been here 10 years. no need to return to country of origin, just make me a citizen..'??
