Recognize the fact that is impractical, point-less and will be completely disruptive of many a stable hard working family.
Seems to me that the anti-amnesty crowd like to close gates after the cows get out of the pasture.
Grant citizenship, but make securing the border a higher priority against future illegal immigration.
The pro-illegal side fully intends not only to have a massive blanket amnesty for all illegals including those still arriving, and they intend to have a big "family reunification" program because families can only reunify in the USA. They not only demand amnesty but a way to bring in any family members still remaining back in their countries.
The current party is not for tougher laws but ways for them to become citizens.
There is a way for them to become citizens unless they have criminal records or have no ability to find work of any kind -- and even that requirement is weak, easily got around.
The USA takes in far more legal immigrants than any other nation on this earth, and most of our legal immigrants come from Mexico and Central America. There is nothing at all stopping these people from going home and starting over the right way, except for their own sense of entitlement, their belief that they should not be required to abide by the same laws that others are following.
This isn't meant to be anti-Hispanic or anything but in the future you are going to see a walled-off, English speaking America and a barrio-like Spanish speaking America. This is already the case in SoCal, SoFlo, and many parts of the Southwest.
What's ironic is that Americans are so very generous and allow non-English speakers to take jobs but once the Spanish speakers get their numbers to a certain level, they deny English speakers jobs by insisting that anyone providing them services be fluent in their language.

You dont even have to go that close to the border. That already is happening in some parts of Northern VA. Culmore and Arlandria are two parts in Northern VA that are no man's land if your dont speak spanish. All within a few miles of the White House.

That's right, those who dont learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
