When legalization is triggered. protections are provided for those who may apply. That is what this bill says. However. legalization is not triggered until the effective enforcement is in place. otherwise. the legalization will simply draw in untold numbers of additional persons and illegal aliens. So until there is effective enforcement. there will be much risk to these people who have been here for more than 5 years. have equity. have U.S. citizen children. We are not really doing much deporting of illegal undocumented persons who have U.S. citizen children. We do not do that. We are not that kind of country. That is why we are gummed up in illegal immigration as we are. We do not like to do those things. But after there is effective enforcement. the legalization will be triggered.
