Marcela Sanchez writes an article in the July 28 Washington Post about a bill introduced last week by Sens. John Cornyn, R-Texas, and Jon Kyl, R-Ariz. The bill demands the undocumented to present themselves to government officials, pay a fine and submit for deportation. Once in their countries of origin, they can apply for a new guest-worker program that would grant them a temporary work visa but would send them back for at least one year once that visa expires.
Sanchez says the bill "shows little concern for getting millions of undocumented immigrants to accept its terms and yet requires their cooperation for success."
Now what undocumented immigrant is going to give themselves up to government officials? I say none. And once in their native country, are they really going to receive a temporary work visa? I think not (and if they do, it'll take a very long time to get one).
Sens. Cornyn and Kyl need to go back to the drawing board 'cause this idea ain't gonna' work.
