In 1986, Ronald Reagan wanted to stop ”illegal immigration”. Newt voted for it. Today, Newt Gingrich says his newer proposal is to cover “illegal immigrants“ who have been here for 25 years. Newt, S.1200“ Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986” already covers “illegal immigrants” up through 1986 and you voted for it then http://www.govtrack.us/congress/vote.xpd?vote=h1986-872.
The difference between “amnesty” and Mr. Gingrich’s “legal status—but not citizenship—to certain illegal immigrants except a legal status” is the right to vote. The “illegal immigrants” have all other rights, benefits, and privileges. Why should US citizens grant these rights, benefits, and privileges to “illegal immigrants” who are guilty of entering the USA by “federal trespassing”, then continued to create/steal/buy a fraudulent and illegal Social Security card, Driver’s License, or some other fraudulent Identification card.
On October 15, 1986, Congress passed S.1200 http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d099:SN01200:@@@S%7CTOM:/bss/d099query.html on a House Agreed to Conference Report by Yea-Nay Vote: 238 - 173 (Record Vote No: 469) http://www.govtrack.us/congress/vote.xpd?vote=h1986-872.
