If PTC is a deal breaker, would legalizing 11 million people without barring them from citizenship (and not offering it either), would that work for most of us?

If we become citizens we can petition our parents; however, the tricky part would be getting around the 3/10 year ban...

I dunno, having a second class of citizens living in the U.S is unacceptable, but our parents need immediate relief in the midst of racist laws being enacted....

What do you guys think?
