No, if they are working legitimately, then they wil have a Visa, illegal immigrants working in jobs which take advantage of them either on economics or physical labor is not something that should be promoted through amnesty.

Yes, make it easier for them to get citizenship but impose fines on companies that employ illegal immigrants; said companies are likely exploiting them.
@9KCD3V61yr1Y
Yes, if they have no criminal record and are given a path to citizenship. BUT, overhaul the system to make coming here without documentation unnecessary, and impose significant fines on companies caught employing/underpaying/exploiting undocumented workers.
@9FZTKS22yrs2Y
It they are without criminal records here or abroad and do not commit a crime those that are here may stay as long as they make an active effort to merge into society. But the border needs to be closed first.
@9C47GYW2yrs2Y
No, but prioritize dangerous individuals first.
@96GYYYF3yrs3Y
only if the immigrants are involved in unionizing or a member of a union so companies cannot use their legal status to hurt all the other workers who are attempting to unionize. on top of it fine companies that employ illegal immigrants.

I'm unsure of my stance on the subject.
@8M4FPF55yrs5Y
Only if it is profitable and/or beneficial for America, don’t require welfare benefits for their family, or get tax breaks as a low income individual.

Yes, but it shouldn't be temporary.

@8FLJFXG5yrs5Y
depends on arrest records working records
@8F4JLJ35yrs5Y
No..Everyone has the right to be here legally! And every immigrant needs to go through the same process to get here and be able to stay here legally. It should not be easier for one person than another it should be fair and the same for everyone regardless of where they came from.
@8DDBRK65yrs5Y
Give them more rights and no discrimination.
@Dona51612yrs2Y
No deport them & fine whoever hires them
@9CJM4JR2yrs2Y
Yes, but only if they pursue a path to earn citizenship by being a model denizen and providing something positive to the country.
@9CJBQ7X2yrs2Y
They should be vetted, thoroughly, then, given temporary work visas. There is no path to citizenship whatsoever. They have zero rights or benefits of a US citizen.

Yes, but it should be permanent amnesty, not temporary. Temporary amnesty as great potential to lead to exploitation and unsafe work conditions.

No, but create a simple path to citizenship for immigrants with no criminal record, and deport the ones with a criminal record.
@8DFSG775yrs5Y
There is nothing about immigration in the Constitution. Therefore, it is state power not a federal one.
@9X9FKS27mos7MO
Yes, but only if they have no criminal background or affiliation, pay their taxes, and apply and pay for the visa all on their own (and are not from Venezuela or Somalia)
