Let's face it... The vast majority of our Illegal Imigrants are here to work hard and build a better life for themselves and their families. They are not terrorists, not criminals, not banditos and certainly not here to hurt people.
The recent Three part series of articles in the Houston Chronicle is a Must read for all who wish to be informed about the Illegal Imigrants.. They come seeking a better life... they find it.. they do their best to fit in to society. They take great personal risks to come. They are contributing to our healthy economy.
I feel we should give Amnesty to those who deserve it ... Give them the "Green Cards", Visas, social security cards, Drivers Liscences, sign them up as Taxpayers, and set them on a path to citizenship should they seek it.
My caveat, "those who deserve it", means we need to establish some criteria and the INS needs to check them out before awarding the Visa and Green card. Have they means of support? A Job? A place to live? A sponsor? Accepted for University? Do they pass Background Checks?
At the same time we should Strengthen the enforcement of Existing imigration laws. This will probably require more counterfit proof Green Card.
It is Illegal to Hire Undocumented Imigrants... Create a Fast track to identify the "Keepers" and get them Documented. Enlist the support of Employers to sponsor the deserving. Then fine Employers who continue to hire the undocumented.
