All I see is the illegals demanding everything from us, including citizenship ,after sneaking into our country, stealing from us, committing crimes and taking our jobs (this in fact happened to several of my friends so its a media lie that illegals don't take jobs from Americans.). They also drive up our health care costs and abuse welfare while they pay no taxes and contribute nothing to our country. I am the son of LEGAL immigrants and my family despises the illegals and has no sympathy for them. I know LEGAL immigrants who have lost their jobs and had their wages depressed because of illegal immigration.

In this entire debate, I have never heard anyone in the Hispanic community denounce illegal immigration, not even a half hearted denunciation of illegal aliens like the half hearted disapproval some Muslims have given toward Islamic terrorism. Also these illegals only DEMAND thing from us. I thought amnesty means forgiveness and one must ask for forgiveness in order to receive it.

That illegal woman who was deported from Phoneix and the illegal Mexican restaurant owner in Illinois....both of them simply demand to stay here. I have never heard of a single case where an illegal alien actually APOLOGIZED to the American people for their crimes, and begged us for our mercy and forgiveness rather than make demands from us.

Many lawbreakers really think we "owe" their kind something and ALL illegals are lawbreakers out of the box.

I wonder why all of a sudden, health care cost goes up so freaking high. It was not like that in the 90s or early 2000s.

Illegals are draining us taxpayers and service payers. Trump said in his speech,immigrants will no longer be able to come here for the welfare.

This is a myth. Five or six anchor babies can keep the family afloat, plus with stolen documents, they can all jump on the public assistance train to the pockets of taxpayers! Not to mention illegal drugs and thief!

I'd like to hear the Liberals apologize for making it happen.

It's not just the steretypical agricultural jobs liberals love stressing. Where I live, Americans still work in most restaurant kitchens, fast food, housekeeping and construction jobs because there are few illegals here in West Virginia. In places like the DC area, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc all of those jobs are filled by illegal aliens and there is no blue collar work available for native-born Americans.

Mmm Reagan was the first to introduce amnesty for illegals. Maybe conservatives should apologize.

I doubt the criminal illegals of today came over 30 years ago. Back then, they knew they would be punished. The liberal judges of today give them a free pass.

Maybe we should just enforce immigration law.

Imagine if we put out a notice that we would forgive anyone in our country guilty of crime. Again, illegal aliens are criminals. They committed a crime when they crossed into the country without authorization. I read that 50% use false documents to get jobs where they are supposed to have a right to work. E-verify and workplace raids must be a requirement.
