The current immigration system — and Obama’s executive implementation of amnesty for illegals — is operating backwards. The fact is that legal immigrants who obeyed the laws in place to enter the U.S. are now fronting the bill for those who chose to do so illegally:
The funding for Obama’s executive action is coming through the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, a fee, not tax based agency under the jurisdiction of Homeland Security. Because the USCIS is a fee based agency, many have argued Congress cannot defund it. According to the Congressional Research Service, Congress does in fact have the ability to defund the agency through the appropriations process.
The larger question is, who is paying these fees? Millions of legal immigrants are paying these fees, which are now being reallocated by the executive branch to legalize millions of illegal immigrants who have been living in the United States for years while failing to go through proper and long established legal channels to obtain citizenship or other legal status.
Not only that, but legal immigrants are paying for illegals to cut them in line:
As illegal immigrants continue to seek legal status under President Obama’s executive actions, the waiting list to enter the United States legally grows longer, as does the waiting time for those in the pipeline.
American born Jimmy Gugliotta, who currently lives in Santiago, Chile, with his Argentinian wife and their children, has been waiting more than a year and a half for visas to bring his family to the U.S. He doesn’t understand why going through the process legally puts him behind people who sneak into the U.S. illegally.
“It’s really sad to see that we’ve been put in the back seat,” Gugliotta told Fox News via email. “What I found outrageous is people like me, a U.S. citizen, are actually being put at the back of the line, and that to me is a total outrage.”
Amnesty is only fair for illegals. Why should they get special treatment for breaking the law?
that is discrimination and done by the POS gay muslim in the WH…cant wait for him to get his…he wants their 3rd world, ignorant asses, diseased, criminal votes…that is all he deserves for his party! But we deserve much better, we have to make sure we get it!
Illegal immigration is not just “fair to illegals”, it gives them exclusive rights to collect, abuse, not pay taxes, commit crimes without penalty, and treated with exclusivity rights by the govt! They are nothing but piss pot wetbacks!
