The American people rose up and said no. My amendment which tried to fix that came very close53 to 45. I think that is a concept we should revisit but not until we have addressed border security and made a commitment and significant improvements and a guest worker program established for people coming in legally. In my opinion. that would probably also cause some of the people who are here illegally to see a clear path. a workable path. a dependable path to come into our country and begin to work legally if we act now to set up that guest worker program. Then start the long and arduous process of trying to handle responsibly the people who are here illegally. some of whom have homes. have Americanborn children. which we must realistically address but maybe not all at once.
