I was simply stating my opinion as everyone else has about who they think should or not be included in an EO. I am sure everyone would prefer CIR instead of a narrowly tailored and, most likely, very strict EO. Even DACA has stipulation in it that do not apply when legalizing through a relative or other means. However, with a republican majority in both chambers that's not a reality. In fact, the republicans version of CIR probably means pumping more money to enforcement, rather than dealing with the human cost of immigration and fixing the legal process. The reason there is illegal immigration is because the means to legally immigrant are so stringent and broken.

My hope is that every group and category that has been lobbied for here will be included, but the reality is that not everyone is going to benefit. People will be narrowly left out and some will have an easier path to obtain some sort of legal status. others will not. It's a very sad process.
