Yup the American tax payer (the citizens) are quickly loosing all our rights and freedoms. Lets see, in California the illegals get FREE health,schooling, college,welfare,food stamps,cheap housing, voting rights ( with false I.D.) and we the tax payer support these illegal leeches. What next?Now they give them wrok permits? American is unemployed at 22% (not the 9.5%) that is lied about in the news media. Check for yourselves. Our Childrens can't even get grants for college in some areas,but they are trying to pass the act that will allow 2 million illegasl to get FREE college.Is this right? When do the REAL citizens get their fair share? SOmething is really wrong in our political arean.

Illegal undocumented aliens are able to get working permits meanwhile people who are sponsored by their loveones are waiting more than a decade or so for their visa while away from their families! These are the people that you should prioritize and not the ones who broke the LAW!

we cant even take care of the law abiding citizens of this country. Why is there even any contemplation. Weve done a fine job of electing a bunch of idiots.
