Immigration - June 2007

to punish undocumented immigrants who came to America for many of the same good reasons they or their ancestors came for when they came to America? Sure we have an immigration problem causing other kinds of problems, like just living is a problem, like population growth is a problem but loathing them, the undocumented immigrants who are here admittedly illegally and who are not criminals except by the loathing blanket definition of their haters is draconian, uncaring, and hypocritical. In fact it may be logically contradictory and unamerican.

Why is it that all the people for illegal immigration come out of the woodwork and stand together making themselves look so united and gain so much support? Yet the people against it sit at home and complain? Why can't people start putting together massive (and I mean millions of people) to come out and show congress that not everyone is for illegal immigration? I am tired of people posting questions here about mexicans taking over, hearing the couple behind me at the super market complain, hear Bill O'Riley go on about it every day and so on. People, if you are against it, stand up and show it on the street, IT'S YOUR RIGHT MORE THEN IT IS THEIRS!!!! Take the fourth of July for example, a day when we all celebrate our independance and take pride in all the rights that come along with it. Why can't a big march be planned? Instead, people will be sitting at home drinking beer, barbequing, and taking their boats out. Illegals at least take a day off work to get their point across.

My understanding on this proposed immigration bill is that if the bill gets passed,all those here illegally will be given immediate temporary legal status. The only way that they would have to pay a fine or touch back to their country is if they want to become citizens or get permenant residency. There is no time limit as to how long they can keep their temporary residency,could be forever.They are under no obligation whatsoever to ever become a legal resident or citizen.
Is my understanding correct or did I miss something?

If they came with a visa and now it's expired. can they get a green card? They are not a minor, have no family here that are legal as well. They won't be getting married anytime soon. Any help would be great. Thank you!

Please, don't give up. If you're one of the few that think anything will change, no matter what your opinion is, you're wrong.
Things started to change thanks to those who called and emailed politicians and "leaders". They (or at least some of them) are re-thinking about selling the country out for a bunch of votes because we let them know that they're gonna loss "the entire bussiness" if they don't listen to the american mayority.and go on with this treason called "comprehensive reform".

Keep calling, emailing and compaigning. That's what I do every single day and my family (most inmigrants like me) and my daughters (both born in the USA) are helping me in this committment.

I came to America because I love America, its culture, its people, its way of life. I don't wanna live in Mexico and my town is becoming a mexican town.

ok so I have lived in the US for 3 years on an A2 visa, I left the US in march to go back to england for good, I left m boyfriend here. I came back in may on a 3 month visitors visa to visit my boyfriend. However, I found out I was pregnant, and my boyfriend and I got married the other day. I am worried that immigration is going to mess me around with paper work, and I'l have my baby here, and then I will have to go home or something. But if the baby is born here it is a US citizen and I can't get the baby into the UK to stay. How long will the paper work take? I am 15 weeks pregnant now.

If Cuban Immigration is illegal, why the Coast Guard can't deport all illegals, and why they only deport illegals on the ocean before they touch land ? All those criminals are terrorists, communists, and anti-Americans

The US annexed the Louisiana purchase, Texas, the west, Alaska, Hawaii. That eliminated borders. So the simple solution is not to make fences but to annex Mexico in the same fashion.

We have the Coast Guard who guard our borders by sea.
Isn't it time for a United States Border Guard, designated to protect our borders by land? Trained like all other military.
Well-equipped. Current border patrol could easily opt in if they chose.

The problem with Immigration Issues is that All brat Congressman were born with a silver spoon in their mouth!
politics & Immigration Issues walk hand with hand.
On Immigration issues the main problem is the greedy spoiled people who care only about money and hedomism, And don't care about other people !
People who never had been an Immigrant are trying to make/change/update laws for people that they consider inferior than them.!
They look at Immigration from the top to the bottom, and try to criminalize and stereotype nations and ethnicity's!!!
But... what about if they become undercover illegals and try to cross illegaly by land from Mexico, or by ocean from Cuba to the USA?
( Tendran las agallas y el valor ? ) They might understand better about Immigration,,,...
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*...
I stand up for SMART Borders!
You will listen more about Smart Borders soon!
We don't want open or closed borders!
We need Comprehensive Reforms.!!!

Peace!

They simply cannot be so out of touch with Democratic American citizens to believe their constitutents want illegals to be rewarded for illegal behavior with "a pathway to citizenship." And, surely they understand that history has shown that making illegals citizens will encourage more illegal immigration. Further, they ignore the injustice of laws being enforced on Americans, such as being charged with a felony for use of false identification, tax enforcement, etc, but the same laws are not enforced when an illegal is involved. If the Democratic party is in fact concerned with poor Americans, they could in no manner make poverty problems worse by supporting illegal amnesty in any form. They would support enforcement of our current immigration laws and securing of our border. I have voted Democrat all my life, but will not vote for anybody for "a pathway to citizenship" (amnesty) for illegals. Every Democrat I know agrees. Why are they committing political suicide?

Hi folks,
My family and myself are thinking of emigrating to Australia via skilled visas. Have started the ball rolling by paying for the skills assessment.
yesterday i felt keen to emigrate and full of hope.
Today i feel low, sad and unsure if it is the right thing to do. the whole process of emigrating seems overwhelming! having to seel your home, transfer pensions over and virtually sell most things you own and of course leaving family and friends behind.
Just want to know if anyone else felt like this when emigrating???
Or is this a sign that I should not be doing this???

How much do you want to bet that about 11.99999Million of the illegals in this country make under the poverty level....if they become Americans in one swoop of the wand, we will end up GIVING them money every year they file for taxes. If you make little money, you get an IRS refund for MORE than you paid. That is the way the government "balances" the system. So, if you pay $5,000 a year in taxes and you live next to a single parent who barely makes ends meet and has two kids....guess where your money is going....next door....I don't think this country ON TOP OF what they cost us daily now (which won't change AFTER they become legal) we will give them money in April, every year...

I've been joking to friends that the way to solve the Social Security crises (older people living longer and having fewer children thus unbalancing the whole pyramid scheme)is to legalize all the illegals so they could pay into the system. In reality, how much of an impact would this actually have? (Real numbers please, or links to sites where I can find them not just opinions.)

As a latino , I get so ashame when I see illegal inmigrants, mostly mexicans, marching on the streets cursing and offending the USA (the country they wanna live in), showing pictures of the enemies of this country (Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, Iran President), burning the american flag (the same flag that gives them the right to protest freely), spitting on our national symbols.

I get very upset when when I hear illegals saying "aqui estamos y no nos vamos" (We're here and we're not living) as the law in this country is something they don't care about.

There's a long list of issues that are telling that, as a latino, i have to STRONGLY OPPOSE the presence of such people in this wonderful country where my daughters were born, that I have to do anything in my power to avoid that such retrogressive culture replace the american culture and take over this country that I love as my own.

Can You please call your representatives and ask them to say NO to this infamous bill?

I think it's pretty brazen considering they won't lift a finger to stop the illegal flow from their country into ours.
