It’s time the Republican’s have a Royal Flush when dealing with the illegal immigration card. A Royal Flush must have just the right cards to work. It must be just and fair, dealing with today and the future, politically smart but not devious and most importantly it must protect and preserve OUR Constitution. I believe my plan would hit on all those cards. PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS.
1. SECURE THE BORDER- A secure fence must be built with actual materials or a “Smart Fence” built by technology that will prevent individuals from coming into our country illegally. This fence must be certified by the Governors that it adequately prevents such entry before step 2 is taken.
2. GUEST WORKER PROGRAM- A program should be established that allows guest workers to come to this country to take on positions that American’s are unwilling to take. There must be safeguards though to insure the safety of such workers against slave work conditions and to insure that these individuals return to their countries after they’ve completed said work.
3. PATH TO CITIZENSHIP- Those under 18 and their families who came to this country over 5 years ago would be permitted to stay as long as the President’s Executive Decree is dismissed and considered an Unconstitutional act by the courts. These individuals would also have to pay a fine, pay back taxes, learn English, serve in the military or public service charity, and wait in the back of the line to become a citizen.
4. TIME- The Path of Citizenship could not occur before step 1 is completed and/or before 2017 whichever is longer. Any individuals who come to the country during this time in between must also be automatically deported before step 3 can take place.
5. LEGAL IMMIGRATION- The process for legal immigration especially for those with technical skills needed will be less cumbersome and more accessible.
