It doesn't matter what Americans think.
What matters is what the people in Congress think.

And it's the "people" that elected those in Congress.

The phrase "illegal alien" has been discredited. You should know that by now.

Wait, what?

Did these people mistakenly vote yes, or do they genuinely think that our border is fully secure?

It makes you wonder what rock they are living under.
This poll is quite telling where we are and where those in power want to take us.

The nation is at stake and it is all fun & games.

I dont mind enslaving illegals to do the work I wont do. Let em come and slave cheap labor so I can get sevices cheap. That along with globalization and walmart has done one hell of alot over the last 10 years to keep my COL down

And more sadly, it often depends on what those who make the money think. A big part of this is about money. Some business owners prefer to hire illegal immigrants because such persons consider them "cheap labor". Should this happen? No it should not. However, many people answer to the dollar first and foremost.
