House Democrats introduce bill providing citizenship to Dreamers
[THEHILL] Lawmakers on Wednesday formally introduced legislation that would provide a path to citizenship for young people brought to the U.S. as children ahead of House Democrats’ plan to hold an "immigration week" later this month.

The American Dream and Promise Act would allow the young people known as Dreamers, as well as others given temporary status when fleeing unrest in their home country, to apply for citizenship.

"During the years of the Trump Administration, the vicious targeting of our most vulnerable immigrant communities cultivated a climate of apprehension, uncertainty, and fear. For far too long, Dreamers and others have waited in limbo and lived with the fear of being deported from the only country they know as home," Rep. Lucille Roybal-Allard (D-Calif.) the bill’s sponsor said in a statement.

#1 They knowingly broke the law. Now you want to give them amnesty. The current generation are not responsible for slavery that was outlawed over a 150 years ago, but you want them to pay for something they didn't do.

Someone show me the logic other than 'power'.

#2 Trump explicitly gave congress 6 months to fix the 'dreamers' problem. Congress did *nothing* for 4 years.
Do 'Dreamers' seriously think the democrats will help them now? they are needed for the 22 and 24 election!

#3 Illegal immigration is ruining our communities, crushing low-end wages, cratering our schools, burdening our health care system, stoking crime.

Yet another example of how the Uniparty is intent on destroying rule of law in this country. Screw these people.

#4 Seems to be they had an amnesty a number of years ago. Supposedly a one and done thing. Of course, once you legitimize something, it will pop up again.. and again, and again..
