From what i understand it applies to people who entered illegally - maybe before marriage? Now you're not entitled to a green card unless you leave the country, serve your penance, and reapply.
I guess it closes a loophole, but to my understanding, more Mexicans have been leaving the country than arriving over the last decade. Perhaps that has changed since Biden took over.
I see what your saying, but I think people don't realise it actually just doesn't apply to the rich. I think a number of Republicans are going to be shocked to find out that without money they or someone close to them will definitely be in the firing line.
Why not. Get a jump start on Trumpian anti-immigration policies. Legal, necessary, whatever! Hope people like understaffed places and the inability to hire for the jobs white people don't want to do...
