The Wall Street Journal of February 7, 2014 has a front page publication entitled "Immigration Overhaul Stalls". In this publication, it looks like a lot of people's hopes have been dashed by the House Speaker John Boehner. It has been many peoples expectation that at the beginning of the year, Congress will rewrite Immigration Laws which many have complained about. Many are expecting the overhaul of the immigration laws of the country.
The argument is that, about 11.5million people live in the US illegally and it is about time they grant them legal status.
One school of thought has it that, their continuous stay as illegal immigrants affect the country economically. They are working but may not be paying tax. Then also, many talents may be fished and harnessed for the benefit of the country. Congress knows this. There is the feet dragging because, Republicans fear that, it will be to the advantage of Democrats. What they have forgotten is that somebody needs it badly to realize his dreams.
I commend that this article be read by all my mates.
