I belive that people who break the law should be punished for their crime, but regarding immmigration it is a senitive topic. This bill which gives amnesty to illegal immigrants here in the U.S. is one that has to be thoroughly thought out. There are a lot of issues involving immigrants that have to be considered about not giving them amnesty such as breaking up families already here or hiring workers doing menial jobs.
