I believe we have to create a much more efficient process. and I believe the orange card process is the best way to ensure that our policy goals in creating a path to legalization can be implemented and realized. The structural flaws of HagelMartinez must be corrected. and this amendment essentially corrects them. It is workable. it is practical. it does not reward illegal immigration. but it creates a pathway for everyone in this country as of the beginning of this year to show over a substantial period of time annually that they have been and will continue to be a responsible and productive member of American society. It puts the burden on them to go in. to petition. to submit their fingerprints. to submit their photographs. and to wait for those to be checked out before they would be issued the orange card. Once you have this orange card then you know you are legal.
