They will disappear into the shadows. If there is period of "do nothing" for the next 10 years. that will be 7 to 8 million more people illegally in the country. If we dont fix our visa overstay system. which is in this bill0 percent of the illegal population are visas overstay. many of them dont go homethat will remain unfixed. If we dont come up with fraudproof identification cards. employers will never really be able to know whom they employ and whether that individual is a legal person. This is an opportunity to fix all of that. The fixes may not be to everyones liking. but they are positive. It is the most positive immigration bill we have considered yet. Additionally. never before in the history of the country is more being done to fix our broken borders. to fix interior enforcement. to fix employer sanctions. One thing is happening that has turned this bill by talk show hosts into something it is not. and that is for those people who are opposed. this is an amnesty bill.
