While the willingness to engage critics of the immigration bill is welcome, these responses tend to be unresponsive. The White House, understandably, breezes past the instant amnesty the bill extends to illegal aliens during the probationary period. Aliens who complete a “renunciation of gang affiliation” qualify for this legal status so it’s of small comfort that in the future gang membership can be a bar to receiving a visa. And, although under the bill “Z” visas won’t be available until the enforcement benchmarks are met, legal probationary status is available immediately. Question for the White House: Should the benchmarks not be met, is the legal status already conferred on illegal aliens revoked?
