Based on the latest survey that was released last December 6 by Quinnipiac University in Connecticut, they found out that 57 percent of registered U.S. voters support undocumented immigrants’ right to apply for American citizenship. Similarly, 70 percent of voters reported to the same survey that they felt Deferred Action for "DREAMers," the program that offers a 2-year postponement of deportation to allow young undocumented individuals obtain work permits, is a step in the right direction.

Why Immigration Reform May Happen This Year



"A long-awaited overhaul of U.S. immigration law has a good chance of happening this year, bringing major changes to the millions of people living here illegally—and perhaps giving the economy a boost.

For the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), who contend that immigrants are a drain on the economy, any reforms must include not only stricter border controls but tougher laws limiting any kind of immigration — with amnesty for no one.

Despite what many consider the best chances in decades for reform, getting it done won’t be easy.

What’s different now on the national level–and why reform is likely to become law in the months ahead — is a shift in the political scene, said Scott Cooper."

Homeland Security plots ways to spy on Americans through social media surveillance

Summary:
Under the ruse of collecting and analyzing "health-related data," DHS is testing whether scanning sites like Facebook, Twitter and others "could help identify infectious disease outbreaks, bioterrorism or other public health and national security risks," GovInfo Security reported.

Calling it a "biosurveillance" pilot project, the department says it will involve automatically monitoring social media sites to collect and analyze "health-related data" in real time, according to John Matchette, the managing director for Accenture's public safety division (no word on Matchette's thoughts regarding the constitutionality of the program his firm will help facilitate).

Green Card and US Citizenship

It is indeed a proud feeling for all those who have successfully got the green cards.  They can work and live in the US as long as they want, without having to worry about their legal status. Many green card holders are satisfied with this status and they do not even bother of think of the next step, which is to apply for US citizenship. This may be attributed to the requirements that need to be met, in order to file in for, US citizenship.
