As The Date Gets Closer, Expect Illegal Crossings To Continue

Folks from south of the border who have dreams of becoming US citizens are taking note of the Congressional hearings and the immigration law. The immigration law will, no doubt, have a date by which illegal immigrants in this county will be eligible to become citizens rather than be hounded or prosecuted by the law. But the "low-information" crowd -- as is now the popular phrase -- will not pay attention to that date. They feel comfortable that if they are on US soil on/or before the bill is signed, they will be eligible.

One would expect illegal crossings to increase, and that is exactly what The Fiscal Times is reporting:
illegal crossing are up 9 percent.
