<p>Sighs…the Senate passed a resolution to accept the guest-worker program.</p>
<p>**The Senate Judiciary Committee voted yesterday to approve legislation that would create a guest-worker program and legalize the approximately 12 million undocumented immigrants already in this country, provided they pass criminal checks, learn to speak English, and pay back taxes and other fines.</p>
<p>Part of the Senate legislation establishes a guest-worker program that would allow about 400,000 foreigners to come to the United States each year to work.</p>
<p>If it passes, the current legislation would create the largest guest-worker program since the bracero program that brought 4.6 million Mexican agricultural workers into the country between 1942 and 1960, according to The New York Times. **</p>
<p>400,000 immigrants a year…Good god…</p>
<p>Corporations win. American citizens lose.</p>
<p>The Wall Street Journal reports that senators rejected another bill sponsored by two border-state Republicans that would have required guest workers and undocumented immigrants to return home.</p>
<p>Why am I not surprised? If you are here legally, you can stay. If you’re not here illegally, you need to return home!</p>
