the party does everything it possibly can to settle as many illegal aliens here as possible.

SO UNFAIR FOR US WHO SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, WENT TO INTERVIEW, HAD MEDICAL, AND THE SACRIFICES WE HAD JUST TO FOLLOW THE LEGAL PROCESS.

[torrisali]

I know a couple that's been waiting years, paid a lot of money and went thru a lot of red tape. Why is there suddenly a fast track?

[eMDiKhamPha]

Thank you judge. This is getting out of hands; giving illegals citizenship, money to buy house when citizens can't even afford!!!

[jillfeatherman]

“You risk being permanently separated from your family”…no you don’t. Your family can leave with you while you then apply to enter the US legally.

It's also to crack down "married for papers" and divorce after the term is up.

[UnknownMoses]

There is a process to become a citizen for immigrants married to American citizens. Follow the process.

I think we can all agree that we want better border security.

[clementfolorunso]

Its dangerous to homeland security to have undocumented immigrants. How do you track the criminals among them.

[MrTodayistheday]

They knew the law when they entered the country. My wife was an immigrant, and we went through the process. It was not an unreasonable process. I am tired of hearing people wanting to change the law. These discussions encourage people to break the law and hope for an exception. Follow the existing laws!!

[repenney]

They broke into a hotel-then demanded room service. They gotta go! (If we let them stay, they'll turn our country into the one they fled..)

[SDR]

Part of their report reads "States suing to end keeping families together." It's more complicated than their negative spin on it!

[seansimons]

They need to apply through the same process as everyone else, doesn’t matter if there parents were illegal that means they are not us citizens and actually citizens of the country there parents came from.

Thank you Judge J. Campbell Barker for respecting the law and not being political for the convenience of Biden and the illegal migrants. THE LAW IS THE LAW. It's disgusting for Biden to even request for illegal migrants to be allowed in to the U.S. and the next thing will be supporting these illegal migrants at the expense of the American taxpayers! Thank you again, Judge J. Campbell Barker for respecting THE LAW.

[SteveBoobJobs]

they're mentioning people who've been here for 20 years, but showing migrants who sowed up last month....

[LilMissSmartyPants.]

im sick of democrats terrible leadership VOTE TRUMP

[seinfan]

Instead of deporting illegals, he wants to reward those that have skirted the law for a decade.

[bonnyk]

THANK NO GOODBYE IF YOUR NOT HERE LEGALLY. NO NO MORE

[cynthiabell]

Come here the right way not steal your way in period

[Cashholiday]

The amount of scamming going on my these immigrants is ridiculous
