The government need to propose a better plan to not jeopardize itself but to also help these immigrants.... 39011@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 14 Jul 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_1397.html#39012 Why don't they just review each case on a individual basis? If they came here legally and was unlucky to be screwed in this fraud, they should be just granted a special visa to be able to work towards their residency. Why are they making this more complicated than it really is?... 39012@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 14 Jul 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_1397.html#38885 To Greg: Give you a break. You don't even know the details to this situation. The people didn't know about the fraud; thus, they are referred to as "victims." Read the article http://articles.latimes.com/2003/jan/06/local/me-koreans6 before you make any dumb-ass remarks. The INS agent and even the broker admitted that none of the victims knew about the fraud.... 38885@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Thu, 10 Jul 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_1397.html#21209 Give me a break. They were trying to fraudulently apply and knew about it. Now, they want to be perceived as innocent victims. I agree that it is pathetic that the agent was slapped on the wrist, but there are two sides to blame - the unethical government worker and the people willing to buy green cards and naturalization - they should not be rewarded.... 21209@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 10 Sep 2007 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_1397.html#16456 The INS agent who originally orchestrated this fraud managed to avoid jail time and received a mere fine and probation. That's pathetic! How could the government punish the people that were victimized by the fraudsters?... 16456@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 18 Jun 2007 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_1397.html#16457 I think this is a great bill. I was born here but I would be pretty mad because my whole family had to get deported because the government found a flaw with great grandparents' documentation.... 16457@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 18 Jun 2007 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_1397.html#16476 Good bill.
