What really upsets me about the entire process, is that illegal immigrants keep coming into the U.S. every day and nothing happens to them. They aren't deporting most of them anymore if they are caught. Here we all are, doing things the legal way, waiting and waiting our turn in line, while people who are actually breaking the law are receiving special attention and treatment. To make things even worse, the large number of illegal immigrants applying for amnesty seems to be slowing down the processing of our immigration applications.

I support open LEGAL immigration. The United States was built by immigrants. It is the reason we are such a diverse country and it has benefited us greatly throughout our history. That being said, it is a travesty that illegal immigrants are jumping the line right now and getting special consideration.

I'm planning on contacting my Senator's office this week to open a discussion about it - doubtful that it will help anything but I will feel better having done it. I strongly recommend every other U.S. citizen on here do that same thing. Remember, even though our representatives in Congress seem to forget this, they all ultimately answer to us.
