can you idiots please stop calling republicans anti-immigrant? they are not anti-immigrant, they are anti illegal immigrant. make sure you idiots insert the word ILLEGAL from now on. my parents are immigrants from the philippines, and they came here the right way, as everybody should. i dont care what color you are, if you want in state tuition discounts, be a damn citizen of the state(or even country for that matter). why do you dream act people insist on having taxpayers reward law breakers?

ITS ALL RIGHT IF ITS ALL WHITE

that man looked like a damn fool! you don't know anything read the fucking Act first then try to argue about it!

America was built on a dream, and on the backs of immigrants. America is a nation of immigrants, some people's immigration history spaning from decades. Not allowing these people the same rights as our forfathers had, to come to a land, to be free and given the right to citizenship is:in my eyes: unlawful, disgraceful as a nation, and unamerican. We should allow these kids to be able to become a part of this nation we know as a melting pot. I support this bill 100% and so should you.

Q: HOW DO YOU SCARE THE SHIT OUT OF ANTI-IMMIGRANTS?

A: Give immigrants a college law degree.

[StLukey7]

@backrubs62 US COC represents 3.2 million businesses in the U.S. Your side has stated, "If America wants to know how immigration affects the economy ask the American Federation of Small Business" (Mark Krikorian before a Senate Comittee) They hardly represent 100,000 businesses!! Less than 3% of the U.S.COC & the others....if you could use these citations you would. Since ALL of Americas Economic forces are on our side...you have to make these little pop-shots to feel good about yourself.

[backrubs62]

i think Mr Cutler who worked in the government knows more about the law that the LULAC spokes hole who is just using standard talking points over and over

[backrubs62]

@jimjonesable a reminder: being hispanic, or latino is not about race. its about an ethnic background.

being from mexico and being a mexican is not about race either, its a country of origin

[backrubs62]

@StLukey7 easy! the US COC is looking out for big corporations who want cheap labor.

the AFL CIO want it for union membership and union dues.

the Dept. of Labor is ran by Hilda Solis, whose family immigrated here to begin with so who more than likely will be representing the illegal immigrants.

the Dept of Ag, sees illegals as cheap labor for farmers

[StLukey7]

oh...
