At bottom, we must:

1. Substantially reduce levels of legal immigration and end illegal immigration, while providing amnesty – at a price – to most pre-existing illegal immigrants.

2. Be selective about future immigrants’ country of origin, and terminate multiculturalism as a national value.

Quote:

Each illegal immigrant who applies for amnesty must pay a fine of $10,000 per person, over a five-year period if necessary, before becoming eligible for amnesty. Family eligibility will be limited to the nuclear family: spouses and children who have lived in the United States for five years, or since their marriage/birth.

Quote:

• What does America’s work force need? What choices leave our children the best, most sustainable America?

• Aren’t there significant differences in the speed and completeness of assimilation among different immigrant groups?

• Doesn’t it make a difference whether we take 1,000 Chinese, Japanese, or Koreans as opposed to 1,000 people from south of our border? Just look at the astonishing Asian success rates, and the failure of so many Latinos to graduate even from high school – and the divisive evolution of Spanish to become, de facto, our second national language.

Quote:

Action steps
The policy implications are clear:

• We must end illegal immigration by enforcing the laws on employment and strengthening our control of our southern border.

• We should calibrate legal immigration annually to (1) the needs of the economy, and (2) past performance of immigrant groups with respect to acculturation and contribution to our society.

• We should declare our national language to be English and discourage the proliferation of Spanish language media.

• We should end birthright citizenship, limiting citizenship by birth to children with at last one parent who is a citizen.

Quote:

In his controversial final book, “Who Are We? The Challenges to America’s National Identity,” the late Harvard scholar Samuel Huntington got it right – as he usually did – when he identified growing Latino immigration and avoidance of the melting pot as the principal threat to our unity and progress as a nation.

This FAIR dude is saying not all immigrants are the same, and some are more desirable than others.

This coming from FAIR advisors, it is an indication of the direction of Immigration Reform debates in coming years.

Maybe these two are advocating for something far right to counter the left leaning bill from Representative Gutierrez so the two sides can meet somewhere in the middle. Or maybe they're just crazies. Yeah, they're crazies...

i dont know why i have this feeling that when republicans take majority in the senate they will pass some sort of CIR. but it will benefit very few people and we sill see mass deportations in record numbers. i hope i am very very wrong.

Because Asians are the Model Minority, of course, they'd be proffered over Latinos. This has always, and forever will be. I do see his plan as a bit extreme (then again, what anti-immigration plan isn't it?) So, I don't know, could go either way. However, knowing how unsatisfied Republicans are, no matter what they do, eventually they'll wont want Asians from immigrating here, so they'll stop that. Then, English will finally become the official language of this country, followed by Republicans wanting to only accept European immigrants from migrating here, then it will become the perfect Aryan society and Hitler will have his wish and... Woops. Got a little of topic there....

We have to be realistic here people...... There will NOT be across the board amnesty nor will there be mass deportations. To be honest, these suggestions would be more likely to pass than the CIR Guiterrez(?) proposed... Well except the citizenship by birthright.. I doubt they'll be able to amend that...

for 2011 i predict some type of immigration reform it might be the complete cir or dream act and ag jobs. but whatever it is, it will have very high requirements, fees, and the procedure will not be easy, also not everyone will qualify for it. the democrats put a very liberal proposal and republicans a very conservative that way they will be able to meet in the middle.

If republicans win control of the house NOTHING is going to pass. Remember when they refused to go to conference with the republican senate after they passed CIR in 2006? The would be republican chairmen of the various immigration and judiciary committees in the house are VERY extreme on immigration.

The Republicans do have a plan on immigration is called MASS DEPORTATION!!!!
