I think FAIR puts it pretty well, do you?
"This bill is a sham. In stark contrast to the efforts made in the mid-1980s, the bill currently pending before the Senate is not even a pretense of an effort to actually reform U.S. immigration law and policy. The Bush Administration, determined to deliver an amnesty and virtual tidal wave of future foreign labor, argues that the 1986 law did not work, and therefore apparently believes we need to compound these mistakes with a series of ludicrous and absurd measures that will do little to reduce immigration or enhance its enforceability. Most egregiously, the Senate bill fails utterly to increase the level of risk for those employers who are most determined to use immigration to reduce labor cost.
Answer:
Even I agree!
i agree
seems quite right
I agree with you 110%
HONESTLY
My favorite thing everyone says is that immigrants take jobs no American wants to do -- HELLLLOOOO
Employers make it that way -- paying ridiculus wages to these people and they accept it openly. . .
I can't live on $5 an hour can you?
I know too that there are WAY too many people. . .
something must be done -- everything is going totally out of control - we are setting ourselves up for one big recession when it is all said and done. . .
DAR, do you have a link with the brand new ammendments of the amnesty bill? If so, please post a question with the link.
I agree. With what I know of the bill, I am against it. I am a conservative who is very disappointed in EVERYONE up in D.C. on this nightmare.
Before anything is done about immigration, they HAVE to close the border and enforce illegal immigration laws. Then they can work something out.
If stiff penalties are placed on anyone hiring an illegal (knowingly or "not") there will be no reason for them to come here. It won't be a matter of trying to deport them, they will leave on their own. Then maybe the corrupt government of Mexico will be forced to help it's own people and fewer terrorists will be coming in by way of the Mexican border.
***and let's keep those crazy driving Canadians in their own country as well <joke>***
I am HIGHLY IRRITATED by what has happened to our country in the last couple decades!
i agree completely. I'm sick at the idea of allowing criminals to become citizens of this great country. i think we need to round them up, take everything they have cept the shirt on their backs. put them in tent prisons for a number of years. tag every one of them electronically so if they ever attempt to enter the country again we can capture and send them back again. immigration is what made this country great, but it was LEGAL immigration.
Would someone explain to W, that even if we have a guest worker program for say 500,000 a year, that would not even put a dent in the tens of millions that want to come. The guest worker program is also a lie, in the past once they arrive on USA soil, they or their employers can apply for a green card.
They want to slip one pass us saying that the new guest worker program will not be allowed to bring their families, and will go home in a few years. If you believe that they will not bring their families, or make new ones here, or they will go home later, I have a bridge in NYC I would like to sell you

Isn't this exactly what many of us have been saying all along?
FAIR must be comprised of people with common sense and a deep sense of patriotism. I will see what support I can give them.
Senator Inhofe of Oklahoma makes sense too.
He has a petition on line and sends email posts to keep us updated on his views. I think he would make a great Presidential Candidate and the time is ripe for a strong opponent of shamnesty to announce.
I agree totally
Sorry, my glass is still half-full. I still don't think the bill is all that bad and that the good points still outweigh all the negatives.
