Nancy Pelosi: Republicans won’t push immigration because of race



I think that's quite possible. This is a group that, where minorities are concerned, have had great difficulties. It's been that way ever since the civil rights movement. So what's next? Who knows. Here's my idea: "amnesty"for the immigrants who crossed, provided that they are: willing to pay back taxes, contribute through work or military service,  have no criminal record or have committed minor infractions (no violent crimes or worse), as well as a special track to citizenship. Immigrants with kids need to be kept with them so that someone can keep an eye on these kids, who would technically be citizens. The border will need to be secured via the National Guard and/or the U.S. Military. A fence is not feasible as they will either go under or around. The only hope there is to have a full navy deployment around us, a sure disruptor of sea trade. For the poorer immigrants who can't get a lawyer or other fair representation, we need to appoint someone who will genuinely take an interest in the case. We may also want to expand their access to college and issue work visas at graduation, so that when they are trained, immigrants may be able to join the Defense Department or any other research area. If anyone knows some other holes in our system, please let me know.
