Pay taxes...pay back fedgov education loans...not forgetting to fine companies like Apple who knowingly employed illegals.

why have these temporary dreamers not already applied for green card status? A path to being here legally exists! What have the ignored it?
-
1. How do they qualify for Green card status? 2. How much does it cost to apply for GC status?
-
Just fill out the form, file and pay the $550 dollars!! Applicants are filing daily. The LEGAL Way!
-
Now $750 of you are under 14 which DACA age would have been with kids coming in! Others $1140. Fees due with application form!
-
Lordy you are one entitled, privileged person lacking complete empathy.
-
I have lots of EMPATHY for my many friends who did it ALL LEGALLY!! Not dreamers but people who filed for green cards and work visas!
-
Were they brought here when they were 6? Forgive my absolute doubt of your ability to empathize - it stands.
-
Responsible parents file the proper applications for their kids! That's the problem as Mexicans just keep breaking the laws!

So be employed illegally, suffer through college debt which is unaffordable for native families, or join a military our people won't.

Tillis has lost me as an NC voter. He did nothing when Obama EO'd DACA
-
I agree it shouldn't have been EO'd but is it really worth ending it now for what is sure to be inadequate legislation
-
If Congress had cared they would have insisted on appropriate legislation, funding for "illegals" and it would have been clear.
