    Some noncitizens who are married to American citizens will be protected from deportation and be allowed to apply for permanent residency. Seems like a pretty big move. Don't know if it's going to get him many votes in this election year. But it doesn't seem like a bad move.

    I will have to give his team credit for having the handouts ready for prime election campaign season. Well done, Team Creepy.

    What are some of the reasons you would say that Biden has been a more effective President at putting America first than our previous President? It's like everything he does makes us forget that we ever had a president during the term before him

    Instead of having to pay 1000s in citizenship processing fees like foreign nationals, these undocumented spouses and their children will be given 5k debit cards and free health insurance. Duh

    This was always the best case scenario. I've always been in favor of making an easy path to citizenship for the ones that are here now and contributing to society. Commit a crime? Im all for deportation without warning assuming the crime is bad enough. However, the overwhelming majority of illegal citizens are here to work hard and Im sure would gladly pay taxes to be safe from the thought of deportation. Mass deportation never works, you can see plenty examples if you really wanted to see the truth.
