Welcome home boys!

  • Get congress to pass a new immigration act that gets rid of the current quotas and restrictions, Anybody who wishes to enter the country as a permanent resident can do so after paying a nominal fee.
  • let people facing immigration hearings have public defenders.

Well for one thing if you are having functionally open borders why would you have immigration hearings anymore anyway? It would just be simpler to get rid of all that infrastructure and just give everyone their green card at the airport, why bother with the fee even... Your other proposals can be done with a huge amount of political legwork but these two are total pipedreams. I can't see any party being excited to get behind them as I don't even think you could get 30-40% of the country behind that.
