Also the Senate will be introducing a bill in late May.<BR/>I am hopeful that the compromise that comes from both those bills will make a lot more sense than the Bush proposal. <BR/><BR/>I am happy.....happy....happy.

At first blush, it makes no sense whatsoever. How could a family of 5 be expected to come out of the shadows if it means paying an exorbitant amount of money (over $60,00) as a penalty and application fee. It makes me think that President Bush is not really serious about an earned path to citizenship and would rather the immigrants go home, after they have served their usefulness in the agricultural fields of America.<BR/>Where does that leave the Irish construction workers, nannys, bartenders, waitresses etc. ?<BR/><BR/>Peter NasseyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
