If this is to RESTORE legal immigration laws and protect both children, abused by their parents I am interested. If it is to allow criminals in and out of the Nation, not so much. No other country takes millions of illegals and we as a Nation allow more LEGAL IMMIGRANTS THAN ANY OTHER IN THE WORLD. I would also accept if everyone present would feed, clothe, take care of children, adopt, and pay medical bills for at least one family whether they are gang members, from muslim countries or China. Hopefully your minds and hearts are willing to see and practice your beliefs. I have a family from Ecuador that I am currently trying desperately to bring from detention center to live with my family. God Bless America.
