You should check 1986 (was that the year?) when a few million illegals got granted amnesty.  Now we are having the same problem.  So if the U.S. grants them amnesty, how many more times are new illegals going to pour in and do the same thing?  Look for research articles in library databases.  Find news articles, books, interviews.  Etc...

They'll be a big party and the INS will be bogged down.\nWhy do they need a 2nd amnesty?  The first one didn't work.

I don't know what organization you are looking for specifically but this link will take you to the 2004 annual report for Amnesty International which should give you the information you are looking for.  If not there are other resources you can use on this page.\n\nhttp://web.amnesty.org/report2004/index-eng

Yup....they sure are!!\n\nDo you really think that granting amnesty for 12-20 million people is not going to have a negative effect on the US?\n\nWhat about the tax breaks and all the other breaks the rish get...\n\nthe rich get richer and the poor get poorer....this sucks too  because I am not rich.

I seriously doubt it! lol, I think if it would only be for those who weren't caught and have a certain length of time working and living here in the u.s. I think the amnesty part may be for the parents of "anchor" babies. (children of illegal immigrant parents). I think the rest will prob. only get a temporary work permit for like 3 years or something, and then they will have to reapply for it again. It's pretty much up in the air as to IF it will be passed. President Bush said that the 'undocumented' workers will have to get to the back of the line when it comes to the immigration process. It'll prob. be YEARS before you could become a  resident much less a citizen. It's not going to be as easy as it sounds.

That is very nice of you but it really isn't a fair trade. If all who want amnesty want to trade maybe than it would be fair. Do you think that will happen?

They are in favor of a "path to citizenship" (DNC Website) which is the same thing as Bush's "guest worker program".  Look for amnesty coming up.

No they have applied for amnesty. It's one of the bills supported by the Democrats who now contol Congress. Perhaps a wall.............. a very high wall between our borders might be the solution to this horrible crisis that we now face.

I think this is a very valid question.  It shows how hypocritical it would be to give amnesty to those who did not follow the rules.\n\n---\n\nin response to the person above, that is not true.  They are not all "doing the work that no one else will do."  They are doing jobs U.S. citizens will do, but are doing it for such cheap wages, often lower than minimum wage, that they are getting the jobs.  They are bringing down the value of a jobs worth.

That is already an amnesty. If you serve you get your citizenship.

I totally agree with you.  Although I am very much against amnesty for any illegal.  Mexican or other.  I know many Mexicans who feel the same way.  People are just ignorant and fear what they don't know.  And some people think it makes them feel superior.  Stupid aren't they?  Don't let them get to you.  That's what they want.

That depends what your definition of "amnesty" is. lol.\n\nIt was a "measured" speech and I think his base will be angered by it as he is not being tough enough (for them), I did see a twinkle of compassion in it. You haven't gone wrong, but BE CAREFUL when you're listening to used car salesmen, if you know what I mean. To get you back on track think of Iraq, domestic spying, oil (in so many ways), more money for the wealthy, all children left behind, cultural/racial polarization, "Dead Eye's" hijinx, Valerie Plame, trillions in debt, etc.
