Unintended Consequences of Immigration Reform

The NY Times had an article about children entering out country at an accelerated pace due to the proposed suggestion that the children of illegal immigrants be allowed to stay in the country because they were not in control of their coming here illegally. One of the things that people pushing reform should make clear is that any improvement in one's condition require those people being here for an extended period of time and that those coming in or overstaying visits cannot assume that they can benefit from reforms by coming now.

Ironically, this is virtually the reform legislation that I would consider supporting, but I would only support that legislation once E-Verify is in place. E-Verify should first weed out any one that is taking jobs illegally before reforms are implemented. People who are empathetic with illegal immigrants should concentrate on economic development in the country of origin of these people.

God Speed,
David
