It’s amazing what the threat of mass deportation will do
Immigrants are the finest Americans, because they have went above and beyond what those of us who are native-born can do - they have chosen to become Americans. I hope someday we can make a society worth their respect and not their disappointment.
Oh Jesus Christ that is one hell of a perspective! I have never thought about it like that before.
It’s not cheap either, you gotta WANT it. Between application cost, prerequisite fees, and lawyers for paperwork, it’s common to be out of pocket a few grand.

Yup, we regularly joke that my non-english speaking immigrant dad is the greatest American who ever lived.
His WeChat account gets regularly suspended/blocked because every day he sends chinese language news published in the US, decrying the censorship that happens there.
One of my friends was naturalized this year and he fucking hates Trump.
I told him we could use more people like him.
I wish we could deport the MAGAs that hate our country. I’d rather have citizens who actually want to be here and improve the country instead of harming all their neighbors so they feel better about themselves.
I bet they will be super happy to vote! Welcome to the US, friends!!
I’m sure republicans will be completely normal about this news article.
I can see it now on fox “news”. VOTING CRISIS!!! IMMIGRANTS GIVEN VOTING RIGHTS!!!
Really though, fuck the republikklowns. They offer nothing useful to humanity.
Oh yeah, when they try and throw the election they are definitely going to use this as their ‘proof’ the democrats are bringing in immigrants for votes 🙄
purposeful, bullshit bureaucracy is the real reason for huge chunk of ‘illegal immigrants’
they throw literally everything they can to prevent legal immigration and then throw their hands up at ‘all the illegals’
vetting is important, but they pay for themselves. we have plenty of resources for the vast majority of immigrants. we always have.
Aren’t most immigrants just an economic gain for the communities they join? Last I recall the data also shows they commit fewer crimes than citizens. They certainly pay more taxes than the wealthy.
Yup
I think at one point during Trump’s reign, immigration permits were down to something ridiculous like 300 people annually.
Welcome aboard! This is what keeps America strong, young, and vibrant!
Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
Not so many among us who take these words seriously anymore…
