1. In 2010, senators Charles Schumar (D., N.Y.) and Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.) made a new proposal to reform the nation's immigration laws by creating ways in which unauthorized immigrants could regularize their status, by making it harder to employ undocumented workers, and by allowing more legal immigration. Do you think that Congress is likely to adopt such measures any time before the 2012 elections? Why or why not?
2. Do you think immigration would significantly increase if the United Stated unveiled some type of policy to grant citizenship to unauthorized immigrants? Why or why not?
