Over the weekend and during this week we have watched the illegal immigration issue come to the forefront in our nation. It is said that there are nearly 12 million illegal immigrants in the United States of America and there are nearly 850,000 new illegal immigrants crossing the borders each year. During this election year it seems that politicians are caught in the middle of the road in bringing resolution to this problem. The House of Representatives have passed a bill that would call for all illegal immigrants to be deported and to be illegal in the U.S. would be a felony. The Senate has offered to relax some of the laws by offering a guest worker program that would lead to citizenship. With the Borders wide open, and National Security being an issue, and the outsourcing of jobs to illegal immigrants for very low wages and substandard treatment, how do you feel about this issue?
