So, what should be done with the "dreamers"?

[Caroljo]

If it's no longer valid, why is Trump enforcing it AND accepting renewals for another 2 years? Hmm?

Your ugly bigotry/racism is noted.

Trump said there will be none deported during the 6 months he's giving Congress to fix it. And how in hell was what I said racist? It's racist to wonder why all those 'dreamers' have sat on their asses and not bothered to become legal? Lol! You're such a loser.......

You know - those people who were brought here by their illegal immigrant parents, many of whom have lived here for decades and never known any country besides the USA.

Should we:

A. Deport them immediately

B. Deport them only if Congress does not pass a "dreamer law" within 6 months

C. Allow them to stay

What say ye?

Allow them to stay and give them a legal path to documentation. An executive order isn't good enough. Congress needs to get its act together and fix this. DACA, as Obama himself said, was illegal. It may have been fine, but it needs to be made legal. That is what Trump has now given Congress the ability to do............if they will just do it.

My answer is C.
Trump has said they won't be deported and I agree with that.

Translation: D'oh! You busted me using a quote from my godlet. Damn you!

Translation: I wish I had decent translation skills. I also wish I had the guts to answer questions. But a shameless dodger I am.

If Congress doesn't pass a new law you would still allow them to stay?

Again with that jive. There was no way for them to "become legal."

Treat them like any other illegal immigrant.

C. But only if they can come to my house and help me get my enormous honey-do list done. I got jobs for all education levels.

I'll go with this:

We need immigration reform that will secure our borders, and punish employers who exploit immigrant labor; reform that finally brings the 12 million people who are here illegally out of the shadows by requiring them to take steps to become legal citizens We must assert our values and reconcile our principles as a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws.

Exploiting immigrant and foreign labor are our values and have always been our values.

 

[Bugsy McGurk]

Exploiting immigrant and foreign labor are our values and have always been our values.

And big business opposes Trump's threat to oust the dreamers. He'll have to decide whether to appease his drooling rabble or big business.

Holy crap, a rare moment of agreement. And just look what we're agreeing on! Is the *rapture* about to occur????

These people were encouraged by our govt to out themselves in regards to a crime they did not commit with the promise of protection from deportation. You can hardly imagine a bigger stab in the back than to for the govt to go back on its word like this.

Your double dodge is noted.

Shameless.

C. and give them permanent resident status.

prediction: they will be allowed to stay but they will always have "illegal" hanging over their name. That was always the goal.

Trump seems to get perverse pleasure out of double crossing people, as he did last week with McConnell and Ryan.

I agreed with Julie and then replied to her post. It was "C".

Nope. You made a "prediction." The question is which you want to see - A, B or C?
