Newsmax.com - Obama, Pelosi Again Push Amnesty for Illegals

Newsmax.com - Obama, Pelosi Again Push Amnesty for Illegals: "Despite surveys showing that 75 percent of U.S. citizens are against providing amnesty, President Barack Obama and the Democratic-controlled House will push a system to make 12 million illegal aliens residing in the United States legal, a senior official in the Obama administration tells The New York Times.

Obama is making comprehensive immigration legislation, including the plan to make illegal aliens legal, a priority in his first year in office. Obama made immigration legislation a key campaign promise to Latino voters who turned out strongly for him on this issue.

The plan, which Obama will reveal publicly in May, reportedly will provide off-the-cuff amnesty and a legalization path for illegal aliens, administration officials tell the Times.

The plan reportedly will:

# Bring illegal immigrants into the legal system by recognizing that they violated the law

# Impose fines and other penalties to fit the offense

# Prevent future illegal immigration by strengthening border enforcement

# Prevent future illegal immigration by cracking down on employers who hire illegal immigrants

# Create a national system for verifying the legal immigration status of new workers"
