4/6 Deal Would Put Millions on Path to Citizenship

Tancredo / Pence 2008
\_ curious... what is wrong with deporting 12 million of illegal
immigrants?
\_ I believe the strategery is for Dubya to publicize his guest worker
program as much as possible to obtain Latino support, but count on
the House to make sure nothing changes (no guest worker program,
illegal immigrants remain illegal and still provide cheap labor)
illegal immigrants remain illegal and still providing cheap labor)
to retain conservative support and to not be blamed for the fucking
of the economy.
\_ Here's the reward for breaking the law.
\_ You know in the UK if you live there for 10 years, legal or not,
you get citizenship. (It only takes 5 if you are legal.) These
sorts of things are not uncommon.

RACHEL L SWARNS Published: April 6, 2006 WASHINGTON, April 6 After days of painstaking negotiations, Senate leaders today hammered out a broad, bipartisan compromise that would put the vast majority of the nation's 11 million illegal immigrants on a path to citizenship. The plan would also create a temporary worker program that would allow 325,000 foreigners to fill jobs in the United States each year. The Senate was expected to vote on the measure late today or early Friday and, if passed, it would mark the most sweeping immigration accord in two decades. Under the agreement, illegal immigrants who have lived here for five years or more about seven million people would eventually be granted citizenship if they remained employed, paid fines and back taxes and learned English. Illegal immigrants who have lived here from two to five years about three million people would have to leave the country briefly and return as temporary workers. They would also be eligible for citizenship over time, but they would have to wait several years longer for it. Those immigrants who have been here less than two years about one million people would be required to leave the country. They could apply for spots in the temporary worker program, but there would be no guarantee. But lawmakers on both sides of the aisle warned that there were many obstacles ahead: Any legislation that passes the Senate will have to be reconciled with a tough border security bill passed by the House in December and House Republicans have said they would not tolerate any legislation that amounted to an amnesty for lawbreakers. And the compromise was promptly assailed as just that an amnesty by conservatives in the Senate and in the House. O and some immigrant advocacy groups, said the compromise would create a vast group of second-class citizens who might never become citizens and depress wages and take jobs from Americans. Republican and Democratic leaders, who had fought so bitterly that an agreement seemed in jeopardy, stood side by side today, hailing the deal as a historic decision that would enhance national security by bringing millions of illegal immigrants out of the shadows while filling the nation's needs for labor. Harry Reid of Nevada, the Democratic leader, addressed his comments to the tens of thousands of immigrants and their supporters who have poured into the streets in recent weeks to press for such legislation, saying he believed the compromise would mean most to the illegal workers who wash dishes, park cars and clean hotel rooms. "So even though we all feel good about today, it pales in comparison to the millions and millions of people out there who today feel that they have a chance to participant in the American dream," Mr Reid said. President Bush praised the Senate's efforts and encouraged the lawmakers "to work hard and get the bill done" before senators depart on Friday for the spring recess. The deal was also cheered by business leaders and many prominent immigrant advocacy groups. Department of Homeland Security was prepared to handle such an enormous undertaking, like processing hundreds of thousands of foreign workers and handling the wave of three million illegal immigrants who would be expected to leave the country and return through the nation's border crossings. Edward M Kennedy, Democrat of Massachusetts, and a key architect of the compromise, shook his head when asked to consider the logistical implications of the deal. Today's developments included the Senate's rejection, by a decisive margin, of a plan to advance a bill approved by the Judiciary Committee, a less restrictive bill favored by some Republicans and Democratsthat that would have put nearly all of the nation's illegal immigrants on the road to citizenship. The move to cut off debate and clear the way for a vote on the committee bill, which was denounced by its opponents as an amnesty measure, failed by a wide margin 60 no votes to 39 in favor. Robert C Byrd of West Virginia, Ben Nelson of Nebraska, Bill Nelson of Florida and Kent Conrad and Byron Dorgan, both of North Dakota. The vote cleared the way for the Senate to focus on the compromise measure. Mr Frist said in an interview with CNN that the key to the compromise was a recognition that illegal immigrants "are not a monolithic group." Those who have stayed in the country more than five years "are more likely to be assimilated into society," he said. Also, there was a recognition "that it's impractical, it's impossible, to send everybody home." Mr Frist said the compromise bill would be combined with one he had proposed concerning border security and cracking down on employers who hire illegal immigrants. Lawmakers, who gave impassioned partisan speeches on the floor earlier, had remained deadlocked late into the night Wednesday in a search for a compromise. Senators warned that if the negotiations collapsed, Congress might fail to take action this year on an issue that has riveted the nation and pushed tens of thousands of immigrants and their supporters into the streets for rallies across the country. Any bill passed by the Senate would have to be reconciled with one passed by the House that calls for deporting all illegal immigrants as felons, and would make it a crime to offer them assistance of any kind. Mr Frist said the impassioned debate in the Senate over the past two weeks "shows that it's not where the House is."

| www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1610298/posts STARWISE WASHINGTON - In a last stab at compromise, Senate Republicans and Democrats reported progress Thursday toward agreement on legislation opening the way to legal status and eventual citizenship for many of the 11 million immigrants now in the US illegally. Harry Reid (news, bio, voting record) of Nevada, the Democratic leader, while Majority Leader Bill Frist also expressed optimism that a long-sought compromise might be at hand. There was no immediate reaction from President Bush, who has made immigration legislation a key priority. The developments occurred after Frist unveiled a new bill late Wednesday night on the subject as the Senate headed into a test vote on the most sweeping immigration bill in two decades. In general, the legislation would provide for enhanced border security, regulate the flow of future immigrants into the United States and settle the legal fate of the estimated 11 million men, women and children already in the country. It was the fate of the illegal immigrant population that proved hardest to legislate, and it has left the Senate on the verge of gridlock for days. In general, it would require illegal immigrants who have been in the United States between two years and five years to return to their home country briefly, then re-enter as temporary workers. Illegal immigrants here longer than five years would not be required to return home; those in the country less than two years would be required to leave without assurances of returning, and take their place in line with others seeking entry papers. View Replies To: STARWISE "There's been tremendous progress overnight," said Sen. Harry Reid" This is usually code for the Senate Republicans have either caved in again or we've all been betrayed by McCain. View Replies To: STARWISE From a thread that got pulled a minute ago: "So far I've only heard that illegal immigrants here less than 2 years have to leave." That humming sound you hear are the bogus document printers warming up. View Replies To: STARWISE this is all just a waste of time and taxpayers' dollars... we don't need any new bills, what we need is for GWB & the DOJ to start enforcing the laws already on the books. View Replies To: sissyjane What I heard is there is no guarantee they can come back. And if we do real border enforcement, hopefully they won't come back illegally. View Replies To: Peach I just hope that the amendment to refuse citizenship to those who have committed felonies passes. After all, those felons have paid their debt to society. THIS STATEMENT ALONE SAYS ONE THING TO ME: AMERICA IS SCREWED! ILLEGALS CONTINUE TO GET FREE MONEY, FREE HEALTH CARE, AS LEGALS! TERRORISTS WHO ILLEGALLY GOT INTO THE COUNTRY CAN NOW BE HERE LEGALLY TO BE TERRORISTS! IN OTHER WORDS, AMERICA GETS YET ANOTHER BIG SHAFT FROM THE US CONGRESS OF COMMUNISTS. View Replies To: Peach So, the longer you've broken the law, the more we're going to reward you? Also, explain how they are going to verify how long an illegal has been in this country? View Replies To: Rapscallion "If THEY all agree there is a real devil hidden in the details." The devil is on the very face of the bill- every illegal alien who came here more than 2 years ago gets to stay. And those who have been here less than 2 just need to make a visit to their friendly neighborhood forgerer to get documents showing they've been here long enough. This is worse than just making them all legal because we're going to have massive document fraud making our laws look like the jokes they are. I'd rather they just be honest with the people that they are selling out the country. View Replies To: Mayflower Sister "A - M - N - E - S - T - Y ..... Which, when translated means,,,, I'm changing to the CONSTITUTION PARTY." We have bend over and compromise every bit of integrity we have if our party is going to survive as a viable entity. View Replies To: STARWISE It looks like what I wrote in an earlier post on April 1st, '06 has come true. This is what I wrote: You could require that all workers produce an ID card similar to a credit card for employment. requiring that all Mexicans travel home for the proper documentation. The database derived from such documentation would be forwarded to the United States. For the majority of Mexicans, we are not talking long travel times--three hours max. The bottom line is that no employer could hire a worker without the card. With the card, the employer tabs in the card number over the phone for worker verification. Any terminated cards would forbid the worker from being hired. With the card you could track where they are working, make them pay income taxes, control voter data bases and set an expiration date which would force all card holders to undergo a naturalization process within a certain deadline--five years, for instance. Anyone who commits a felony would have their card terminated. With the use of the card, the game would be over for the idea that if you could get enough people to beat the system, you could overload the system. This system would be managed by a simple database system much like what is already used in the membership systems in such retail outlets as Costco. You simply have to get the card to operate in the United States. Their economy is dependent on the money these workers send back to Mexico. If Mexico wants that economic inflow, it will cooperate in implementing the system. View Replies To: STARWISE In general, it would require illegal immigrants who have been in the United States between two years and five years to return to their home country briefly, then re-enter as temporary workers. This is only acceptable if we seal our borders first so that we can actually control whether these invaders come back in later. Illegal immigrants here longer than five years would not be required to return home; those in the country less than two years would be required to leave without assurances of returning, and take their place in line with others seeking entry papers. So, if I steal a car and hide it for five years, do I get to keep it now? ALL illegals should be forced to return home to reapply for entry. Entry should only be allowed AFTER our borders are under control. This proposed part of the immigration bill is a form of amnesty and I am steadfastly opposed. last Disclaimer: Opinions posted on Free Republic are those of the individual posters and do not necessarily represent the opinion of Free Republic or its management.
