    Something like pay $100 to apply, have to prove you can communicate very basically in English, have a job lined up and a place to live, prove who you are with no significant criminal history, if approved you get an ID and work permit for 6 months. Not eligible for ANY welfare, government funded health insurance, etc.

    You’re basically on “parole” and have to meet with someone once a month to verify you’re keeping up your end of the deal. Miss one appointment and you get a warning, miss two and you’re flagged for deportation.

    After 1-2 years, you can apply for citizenship. Have several people vouch for you, be basically fluent, and have been paying taxes.




    Side note, what a lot of the liberals/poors clamoring for a $15/hr minimum wage don’t realize is it will increase the numbers of illegals hired tenfold.
    We don't need immigration. We have enough people. Come to visit and they go home.

            As you probably know t hff ere are bodies in the river on a daily basis. If BP recovered all if them that's all they would do do. I'm pretty sure the boat captains just dont see them anymore.

                What? You don’t want to make it easy for a bunch of folks that aren’t willing to fight for their country to just come here and trash ours with their socialism voting arses?

                  Illegal Immigration has been a crisis for as long as I can remember. Our elected officials (both parties) have failed "We the People".

                  The only thing you can count on is they will continue to waste our tax dollars with the appearance of border security. At least with "the wall" we could see a tangible benefit of our tax dollars.

                  It's similar to the "war on drugs" Been spending billions of dollars every year for decades and the drug crisis continues to get worse.

                  I no longer have faith in our Government.

                    I plan t,o have that put in a contract with some consequences if violated. If more people did that, then less would come. And, it is only illegals I'm talking about

                      Our place in Freer had more illegals than cactus and mesquite trees. Never ever came to camp but would walk up to you. One group of 16 with 2 pregnant females did pose for a picture for us after thy wandered up on us asking for directions. We did call BP because of the concern for the 2 pregnant ones. After that the lease owner kicked us off for “other” reason’s. She was giving them a safe haven on the ranch.

                        Here is an irony. Ive been hanging out near the river on the Mexican side for over 30 years. I am off the river just a few miles. In all that time I have never seen anyone on the ranch that didn't belong there. Have only gotten pics of anyone maybe twice and that close to a hwy. Granted the military will drive thru the ranch occasionally . But they are friendly. we have a good relationship with them and they never drive thru the ranch during hunting hours Never had anything broken into or damaged in any way.

                        Not making a point, just observing

                          All of them are criminals and need to be arrested and deported immediately to their country of origin. We have an immigration system and it’s not broken contrary to what people say and notice when people say our stream is broken they never tell you what exactly is broken about it. That’s because they can’t, it’s just a talking point and it’s easy and it resonates with ignorant people that don’t take the time to dig deeper. I’ve worked in an industry alongside mostly ex-pats for more than 20 years and I’ve watched many many of them go through the process. Is it easy? No. They have to justify they are here doing a job that an American can’t and that’s the way it should be. Everyone of these illegals just cheapens the effort of all those that went through the process lawfully to become an AMERICAN. I’ve had colleagues / friends that had to leave because they weren’t granted a visa and it ****** me off every time i see an illegal knowing they will eventually get to stay when a productive, educated friend could not.

                          It’s pretty funny how the govt can gain control over the entire US population in less than a year and force them to stay home, out of restaurants or churches, to wear a mask but we just can’t control our borders.

                                Why? I’ve got plenty that were born here that I’d happily trade for some good legal immigrants. I say let one in....give him seven days to find someone he should replace and explain why. All immigrants aren’t bad and all citizens aren’t good. Legal immigration should not be easy, but it should be simple. That’s how all our forefathers got here.
