Not that many of those. I might add. But they have a whole different variety of motives for coming into the United States illegally or overstaying their visas. But the objective of their crime. and it is a crime to enter the United States illegally. and those people who do so are criminals by any definition. It doesnt (10 to march in the streets and say. youre not. if you committed a crime to come here. youre a criminal. So to pardon immigration law breakers and reward them with the objective of their crime. pardon and reward. The objective is whatever is on their list. whatever their motivation is. we grant them. And thats what the Senate proposes to do with the legislation that they have before them in debate there this week. is that they propose to not only pardon those who enter the United States illegally. but to grant them the objective of their crime.
