[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is a decent plan overall and most reasonable democrats and republicans could agree to it. Get rid of the gang affiliated and criminals, grant a one time, permanent legal status for the rest (with no way to convert to citizenship later), and fortify the border. I still don’t agree with the border wall because it has “expensive government boondoggle waste of taxpayer money” written all over it though, but there are different ways of border protection. The permanent legal status would be given ONE TIME ONLY to illegal immigrants who are already in the country as of a certain date. All later arrivals would be subject to deportation. [/quote]
I could go for that, but with one additional caveat: Illegals who are eventually converted to citizenship have a "restricted" citizenship: no votes, and no taxpayer entitlement programs. [b]Yes, it's a secondary form of citizenship, but if they want "full cititzenship," they have to go back and do it the right way - like so many millions of others have done. Otherwise, it's a real slap in the face to immigrants who obeyed our laws.

Rather than call this citizenship, though, I'd prefer to just call it permanent legal residence. [/quote]

I completely agree with this.  [/quote]
