From what i understand it applies to people who entered illegally - maybe before marriage? Now you're not entitled to a green card unless you leave the country, serve your penance, and reapply.

I guess it closes a loophole, but to my understanding, more Mexicans have been leaving the country than arriving over the last decade. Perhaps that has changed since Biden took over.

Nobody said anything about Mexicans. What do Mexicans have to do with this at all?

Are you asking me what Mexicans have to do with the illegal immigration issue in the United States?

[–] Today@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

They're goading you - trying to get you to call immigrants Mexicans so they can call you racist. Mexican immigrants are the largest group at the southern border, but still well below half of all who enter/attempt to enter there.

No. My point was that nobody mentioned Mexicans til he did and the majority of illegal border crossers are South American not Mexican, you royal dunce.

Thanks. That's what I suspected.
