Story on the new immigration law
This is exactly what I was hoping would come out of this. People who have lived here successfully for many years and can show it will, more than likely, now be able to obtain citizenship quite easily. Although, what's with this temporary worker thing they were talking about? I knew there was such a program(though not the specifics), but then why is there such a fucking issue with being here illegally if they could've just become temporary workers in the past?
According to this, workers who have lived here 2-5 years will have to "Go home' and return shortly afterwards as a temporary worker. People who have been here more than five years can stay, and people who have been here less than two years are fucked. Sounds great.
