They pledge allegiance to the flag. They sing our national anthem. They truly believed they were Americans
and didn't learn until later in life that they had overstayed their
visas. Their parents had overstayed their visas, is probably a better
description, and that has affected their legal situation. So I introduced this bill--a simple bill--that reads, if you have
children in America who are caught up in that circumstance, we will
give them a chance to get legal. They didn't make the decision to come
here in the first place, but they ought to have a chance to become
legal in America and become citizens.
