The question is. who has put down roots? How much have they become part of the fabric of society? Nobody is saying. no matter how we resolve the immigration issue. that there are not going to be some people who came here illegally. who. judged on any kind of individual merit basis. should not be allowed to remain in the country. In fact. we pass private bills every year making people citizens who came here 20. 30. or 15 years ago. who subsequently have served in the Armed Forces with great valor in defense of the Republic. It happens all the time.
