Personally, I think we should be welcoming these famillies.

Our country, in all of it's glory and pride was built by natives of other lands. For hundreds of years America has offered ANYBODY the opertunity to forfill thier dreams.
If I were in charge I would build a huge processing center in Texas for the sole purpose of dealing with imagrants. I would build a monument like the Statue of liberty on the Rio Grand and teach these people ENGLISH!

With the threat of terrorism so strong today in the US, I think that we could better control our borders by making it more welcoming for future citizens. This would dramatically reduce the desire to use risky, sometimes life-threating tatics to work in the US as an illegal.
Instead new imagrants could go through a process that identifies them, and provides the local and federal government with a true look at how many, and who has imigrated to our nation.

I live in a place that is overwelmed by people wanting desperatly to work, but are not in the country legally. They stand toghather in groups at gas stations and open parking lots waiting for some contractor to come along and hire them as day laborers for $20 a day.
And Contractors do come, and these poor people must bust thier ass for very little, while the contractor makes a killing.

What Congress, the American public, and State officials are missing is that we are experiancing a new "1800's" in terms of imagration. This time however they are not coming from Europe, they are coming from India, The Middle East, and of course Mexico and South America... Arguably some of the worst social places on the planet today.

It is my opinion that we should embrace the future generations of our country, not shun them away, as to say that we are better than anything they could offer.

My opinions are based on the knowledge of what previous generations of imigrants have done for this nation, and I can proudly say that I am Native American, but I am also Irish/Dutch/German.
