We have crafted an amendment that I offered to Senator MENENDEZ. but he preferred to go forward with his amendment. But the sidebyside that I will be proposing is an amendment that stretches the date out to 2027. It says: If you had a reasonable expectation. based upon your category of immigration. the country you are from. the lines that currently exist with that country. if you had a reasonable expectation within the next 20 years you could have made it into the United States. then you get to come in under a family visa. That is extraordinarily liberaleverybody who really had an expectation that they could make it. Like I said. if you are this Mexican national. and you are the brother of an American citizen. and you were 21 years of age when you applied. you would be over 100 years old today.
