It would be based on the fact of alleged extreme hardship through a spouse. parent. or child of such alien who is a citizen. The fact is. a total of 6 million illegal aliens in the United States currently. according to the Pew Hispanic Center. have an American citizen child or spouse. It would also. as I read this. purport to waive removal for aggravated felons and would result in a green card for this class of individuals. irrespective of payment of taxes. any requirement they learn English. or paying a finewhich we have been told are the essential ingredients of earned legalization. So this is really a backdoor way of undermining the compromise we have been told is very delicate and fragile and should not be messed with. So I would think those Senators who believe that is actually true would vote against the Durbin amendment because it does seek to undermine that compromise.
