It’s all just a polital tool to keep people thinkng that immigration issues matter to him, or our government in general, when they don’t really care. Why are the only immigrants coming “from Mexico City applying legally”? Doesn’t anybody acknowledge that there are tons of people from other countries here without proper documents? And all those rules…fines, english, wait, wait wait…that’s our current policy isn’t it?

The President must act! A comprehensive immigration reform with path to citizenship must occur THIS YEAR. Enough with the hatred and racism from Billy Bob(Lou Dobbs, Senator Sessions of Alabama, and other sad excuses for a human being).
Pass the reform this year!!!

I think it is a good idea that the president should give comprehensive reform to those who are here and for those who came illegaly.I also think that it would be also a good idea to give amnesty that way those who are been here in the US for a long time should be
able to give back to the economy.I totally agree with him when he said that we are a country of Immigrants.So are we to discriminate just because we have been given the opportunity to be born here.Than those who are less fortunate than us.

IMMIGRATION REFORM? YES, the time is pretty overdue, but the best wine stay for the last drink. I think this reform will be the best in Immigration history if they rule against, “… wait at the back of the line …” and admit that documented or undocumented, workers in the U. S. are the ones working hard over the years to put the country forward and setting the pace for others to enter and reap the fruits of the hard labor; and thus, deserve better reward than “… the back of the line ….” Remember, undocumented is contributing a lot to the development of the country long before the the outsider who is only waiting in line for the visa to come in and reap the sweet of the labor. Those who are here toiling hard and doing most of the menial jobs in this country are worth more than “…the back of the line….” A Blessing for the lawmakers while you think this over.

Come on; give the “new President” a break. The guy have so much in his plate right now that people instead of waiting for more concrete and objective plans are criticizing everything. What is the problem with Mexico City? Should he be mentioning all the countries where people are waiting and applying for their papers? I have friends here waiting for 14 years for their papers and they are from Brazil. I think that people should stop generalizing everything and look at the broader picture. Give the President some space to do his job. Let’s contribute in a positive and constructive way, hate and unconstructive criticism don’t help.

Legalizing 12 million immigrants will generate 60 Billion dollars and extra taxes and I’m sure the president knows that.

Like if theyre gonna do something
they just talk over and over the same stuff everytime but they dont do shiit.
So lets keep this the same way its always been like..
lets take workerss back to their country and keep sending their family members away from them just because they were working
or even if they just get a ticket for some civil infraction
lest ask for their status and treat them like criminals and send them all back just for that..
this country is made of some really stupid fuckin shitty laws
that doesnt even make sence sometimes
they take the good people instead of be taking the criminals…
And Students who are graduated from high school cant go to college or some university, dont matter to them if theyre smart or dumb,
thats why even crackheads can go to college or join the military in this country but not the smart or good students that came here looking for a better way to live.
Now in days illegal immigrants cant even apply to get a drivers license or get ID’s..
now wtf is that? i swear they been on some real stupid fuck shiit
even those who already got their Id’s or Drivers License cant apply to renew theirs.
This country has some real stupid people running the government by approving all these kinds of things.
why cant an immigrant get a drivers license like anyone else who just wants to go to work driving their own cars or go buy some food to feed their kids.
now i dont even wanna talk about ID’s.
Without immigrants this country aint shiit

I’m feeling generous today and am replying instead of deleting this comment. Consider it your PSA of the day. Undocumented immigrants cannot get public assistance.
Thank you and have a nice day.

blah blah blah blah.
can somebody who hates the illegalz *PUHLEEZE* come up with something new to say?

You’re boring me.

See here is where your are wrong. When you use an adjective that means against the law, illegal, with a noun, immigrant, you are already setting the stage. A person’s existence is not illegal. They may not have papers pero they are not illegal

MCon, not all 11 million illegal immigrants have no job or lower paid jobs. And not all of them are not paying taxes. On the contrary, basing from my experience as a tax preparer, I get a lot of undocumented immigrant clients that are paying taxes more than the native born and the legal immigrants. I know a lot legal immigrants petitioned by their children who come here when they’re already senior citizens who get government benefits and have not even worked here from the time they have arrived. I also know a lot of undocumented immigrants who came here legally and who are highly educated, speak very good english, send their kids to private schools, put up a business and give jobs to citizens and permanent residents. They tried to go the legal process but because of the broken immigration system in force now, they become illegal due to to slow action of the USCIS on their petitions hence overstay their authorized stay. Please get your facts straight. And one question, where do the SS benefit go which these people paid for?
