Yes, have a simple path to citizenship for immigrants with no criminal record. They should also pay taxes.
@9N4TLKZ12mos12MO
No, they should be allowed to stay however they must obey the laws of the country and checked before allowing them to stay.
@9LP36P6Independent1yr1Y
They are either given amnesty or not. The only thing temporary is how long they have to claim amnesty. In some worlds, temporary can mean also mean amnesty can run out of time…. Like a temporary visa.
@9GZR62T2yrs2Y
If an illegal immigrant works hard and follows the law, they should have the opportunity to gain citizenship, but should go through the process the same as others.
@9GY2P7X2yrs2Y
yes working illegal immigrants should be given temporary amnesty. if they do NOT have a criminal record make it easier to become a citizen than immigrants with a criminal record
@98Q23KW2yrs2Y
they can get temporary amnesty as long as 1. they pay taxes 2. have no criminal record from America or their country of origin and 3. they sign a contract saying they must take the US citizen test in one year and that that is their one chance to take it here. If they do not do it then they will be deported and will have to pass the test before coming back in.
@94HBLJ83yrs3Y
They should not be given amnesty, and companies should be reprimanded for employing illegals, but immigrants should be encouraged to go through the citizenship process if they don't have a criminal record.
@8JJZQLF5yrs5Y
Yes but make them go through the process of gaining citizenship like all others coming in
@9C5PRD82yrs2Y
No, but make the route to becoming a legal immigrant more accessible
@98JRYHD2yrs2Y
yes temporarily, but only if they pay taxes and apply for legal citizenship
@985GNVT2yrs2Y
Yes assuming their job has no influence with cartels.
@8Z9Q4YH3yrs3Y
create a way for them to become citizens but they should not be given benefits paid for by taxpayers
@8YM9WK23yrs3Y
Only if the person has drastic significance to America and has a clean slate both in America and their home country.
@8MRDK8S5yrs5Y
Yes, create a simple path to citizenship for immigrants with no criminal record And they have to pay taxes
