Wouldn't that fix the problem with them not paying taxes and being held accountable for thier actions?

i have not objection at all as far as the ones being granted an amnesty are not murderes or thieves or anything alike . i find any accusation to them about being nothing but criminals very unfair and even more when most of us know most Americans would do the same if they could feel and experince their situation . not all of them are uneducated but people who were unable to find a job and had not choice but to leave . there is curently a great need of people who are high skilled and the burocracy is not allowing them to help this coutry like they could do . there yes also who are very poor so in name of the satue of liberty they shoudl also be receive . the rich will always pay more it is a fact so making excuses about paying a lot because of them is just that just an excuse .

Poor people CAN'T pay enough taxes to pay for education for their families or other services poor people use. That is why we LIMIT how many poor people can come. Obviously all people poor enough in their countries to get us to pay for them were they here would have 'better lives' here, but we can't take them all. Already our schools are being ruined, and if they give amnesty without dismantling benefits for illegals such as education and sanctuary cities and policies, as well as employment, it will only bring more. If they give amnesty without addressing the fact that simple legalization would allow each to bring even more family, we would be in a logarithmically worse place even without guest worker programs or any other immigration whatsoever.
No real solutions have been put on the table. The politicians are insulting our intelligence with the 'bones' they have thrown out.

Giving them amnesty is not holding them accountable for their actions.
If they spent time in jail (in their home county or on their home country's dime) and became citizens when they finished their sentences and paid all their back taxes, that would be holding them accountable.
My objection is that they are allowed to get away with so much and are treated better than Americans. My objection is that amnesty will not solve our illegal immigration problem.

I heard this somewhere else, and I think it's time to pass it on here.
You come home from work one day and discover than an illegal immigrant has moved into your house. You want him to leave, but he won't. He cleans your house, cooks your food, cleans up the yard, but you still want him to leave. He still won't go, saying that now that he's doing the work you don't want to do, he should be allowed to stay. But it's YOUR house after all; you didn't ask him to move in, you want him to leave, but he won't.
Does that answer your question?
If not, here's the unvarnished truth: illigal immigration is a crime, and people who commit this crime are criminals who should be punished. I don't care how hard they work or how much they think they should be allowed to stay or how much they think they're entitled to just because they do the dirty work - they broke the law, they're criminals, and the only thing they're "entitled" to is being shown the door. Period.

My objection is the fact that they are criminals from the very first step onto American soil. I also object to the fact that they choose to remain criminals in reality, yet demand to be given the freedoms and rights of law abiding citizens. I object to the fact of having my hard earned tax dollars helping to fund esl classes without my consent, nationwide. I object to the fact of foreign nationals who are, in fact, in my country illegally, demonstrating with a foreign flag and demanding, for free, the same basic rights as an American citizen.
These are just a few of the objections I have as a matter of fact.

That they came here illegally. But we need to understand that most did not stop with just being here illegally, most went on to use stolen or fake IDs, and SS cards, and a lot when deported, came back, some 2, 3 , and 4 times. And it does not hepl that we want them out when they say, we are not leaving.

It would encourage others to come here illegally and punish those who are going through the proper application process and have waited patiently the way our ancestors did for immigration.
Also what percent of illegal aliens would never be able to come here legally because of arrest records for violent crime?
What if Mexico was to open their prisons the way Castro did in Cuba and drive all the murderers to the border? Should we just let them all waltz in to murder and rape our wives and hildren?

That would be the equivalant of saying "If you want something, you can just continue to do whatever you want, regardless of the laws, until they give up and just give you what you want."
This is unacceptable. they had all the same opportunities that the people who came here legally had and decided to do it their own way. now it is time for them to pay for that bad ddecision!
I don't know how they can be brought to justice, but I totally support it 100%, we have laws for a reason.
