People come forth and they. in good faith. make an application. They find out that application somehow is defective. Whether it is willful. knowing. or they lied about it. they are subject to deportation. If it is an innocent mistake. we dont want them deported. If this is subject to the Cornyn amendment. why are they going to come forward and share information if they know if they share information confidentially they will be deported? We are undermining an essential aspect of this legislationbringing people out of the shadows. Of the millions of people who are here. we have people who have come here because they want to work hard. they want to provide for their families. they want to be part of the American dream.
