Speech #1100050562

We have decided. because the country has asked us to. that we have to do something about that 10 to 12 million people. For those who are interested. just ask your Senators about the bill as it is written. ask what we are going to do. We are going to tell those illegal aliens who are here working: If you want to take advantage of this law. you have to come forward and turn yourself in. and the United States will then begin to work with you on a path toward giving you a document that you can carry with you. that you can use to obtain work. and you will be legal 4 years at a time. The bill also says after 8 years of that process. you will have an opportunity to choose. if you want. to move in the direction of becoming a citizen. But you still have at least 5 years to wait. and you must return to your home country and file your application.
