Every bill discussed by Democrats and Republicans in Congress, offers to let the illegal aliens who violated the law and crashed the border or overstayed their visas, stay in the country with permanent legal status.
At the same time, foreigner who respected our laws, applied for visas, and have been waiting patiently in their home countries, will still be kept out.
What's wrong with this picture?
This is a show-stopper as far as I'm concerned. Letting people become permanent residents, whose only qualification is that they broke American law, while refusing those who obeyed it, is unacceptable. Doesn't matter what other trappings you put on the bill, whether they get "citizenship" or not, etc.
And whining that it would be too difficult to enforce our laws, is a pitiful surrender that would make the French proud.
We don't need to "reform" our immigration laws. We merely need to start obeying them for a change.
