IMMIGRATION BILL DIES IN SENATE

ILLEGALS

With the help of some Senators that opposed the bill, a grass roots movement, along with the Internet, killed the immigration bill. Many voters got on the Internet and asked other to email or call their Senators to oppose the bill that would make millions of illegal Mexicans already living in the US, citizen after a short process. The word "amnesty" was being used to describe the bill. I think they should round up every illegal they find and send them back and let them try re-entering the "legal" way. I was for the "guest worker" program as long as they go back to Mexico after the harvest season. After so many years of a responsible work history, then they can apply for citizenship. While they are working, they should have to take English classes so they can communicate with others here. I'm not saying they can't speak Spanish, but they should know English too. And take American History and Civics just other immigrants. I don't they should get special treatment because they slipped in illegally.
