Do you guys not understand the meaning of the word amnesty, or do you just not care? For instance, the proposals that all people who are currently here illegally would have to come forward, pay a fine, and then get in at the back of the line for people waiting to get naturalized are not "amnesty", because they would actually impose a penalty on the people who are here illegally. Deporting people is not the only possible punishment for them entering the country illegally, and it is also much more expensive to us to do that that it would be to fine people and then let them stay (as long as they haven't broken other laws).

It would cost more than 6 Trillion? Funny how liberals all of a sudden care about the budget when the wall or deportation is mentioned.
Money isn't even the most important factor, the demographic change is. These illegals vote overwhelmingly in favor of gun control, hate speech laws, and bigger government. The founding fathers are just dead racist white guys to them.

It is Amnesty. Paying a small fine? so what. People pay a ton of money to come here legally. They are not going to the "back of the line" they are staying in the country. Back of the line are the people NOT in America waiting to come here.
