Immigration Act Reform Splitting U.S. Public Opinion on Illegal Immigrants
The U.S. is debating changes to immigration laws due to increasing problems. People have mixed feelings about the 12 million illegal immigrants in the country. The House and Senate have different ideas for a new Immigration Act. The Bush Administration wants to crack down on illegal immigrants but also suggests legalizing their status. The final law is uncertain, but a common idea is to strengthen border control while allowing illegal immigrants to become legal.
