It hasnt been happening. So our system is broken. What we need to do. consistent with our values and history as a country that has welcomed and honored immigrants. is to deal with the current situation in a realistic. open. fairminded way that tries to find the common ground between us. I believe we can do that. but it is a problem we have to think about from both sides. I have spent some time in the last months. knowing this debate was going to take place. meeting with members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and trying to understand how people are thinking about this. How does somebody who has come into the country. who has been here for 15 years. 20 years. who has raised their kids. whose kids have friends. who has gone to the local school. who is going to college now. how do they see this? How do we all see this? We have 11 million. approximately. undocumented immigrants living and working in the United States. The Nations employers want these people. evidently. because they are hiring them. It is against the law to hire them. but they are hiring them.
