U.S. Senate listens to American People for a Change, Votes 'No' on Amnesty for Illegal Amnesty

Story dated 20 April 2005

"The Senate yesterday turned back a proposed amnesty for up to 1 million illegal immigrant agricultural workers and their families, though it gained support of more than half the chamber." What's this? Senate Republicans actually acting like Republicans? Will miracles never cease? Now, if only Bush would get the memo.

And lest anyone get the wrong idea from reading this site, it would be a very simple thing to make me pro-immigration. Compulsory English education. Make English language proficiency a requirement to work in the US, and to live here for prolonged periods. Oh, and continue to enforce the 'no felons or other violent criminals' rules. Do that, and you will never hear another peep out of me, unless those laws aren't enforced.
