Is this outrageous or what?

Illegal immigrants will become legal immigrants who will then fall in line with the Unions. Problem being is there will always be illegal immigrants undermining the expense of Unions left and right. Do you think an Immigrant will stay with a Union once they know they can give a better price and make more money for the service? Do you think that illegal immigration will cease once you count em all and get them Unionized, Sweeney??

I?m sticking with my illegal?s. They work hard, play hard and are definitively less expensive than anything any Union can offer and that?s a fact. Does no one think of these things?

Gee John Sweeny, not so bright are ya dude.

Unions can not make up there minds on what side to be on now. This shows that they have no real feeling for the American worker, just the worker that will pay the big union official his big pay check. As stated before more jobs going out of America.

This may just very well be the final nail in the coffin for the American worker. Its bad enough that we still have companies who have either left the country or have offshored their manufacturing. Now we have the country's most powerful union not standing up for the true American workers who have supported their cause for so many years. I can only hope this creates a gigantic backlash. Either the American worker revolts or we become a extension of Mexico. The only thing left will be jobs in retail or servicing the elite.

It is incredible the union workers will tolerate this. How dumb to you have to be to give your support and your money to a group that just said "We will fully support allowing 30,000,000 people to legally take your job for 1/4 of your pay."

Unions, businesses, politicians, priests, religions all benefit from expanding their potential employment or membership base.

The only ones who don't are American workers and taxpayers who receive reduced wages and increased taxes.

Unions that support amnesty for illegals are as corrupt as the lobbyists or priests or politicians who support it.

Yeh, let's just make it easy for them. I know it sounds harsh, but the illegals have taken away services legal citizens deserve. They work here and then send their money home so our economy isn't even helped. Let's make it easier for them to go home and work in their country.

President Obama is at the helm in a battle of the century, that is about to commence. Illegal Immigration is more expensive to taxpayers than anybody realize? Only because the inception of the Internet are millions of people aware of the consequences. Experimentalist stay silent, because rich donors have paid for their silence. But the consequences are obvious--OVERPOPULATION! I personally have signed on to a single payer health care system rumored on the Capitol beltway. The only problem illegal immigrants will tap into Universal health care.

In a progressive agenda for AMNESTY, is that the new immigrants will vote largely Democrat, because of resistance of other parties. Unions have adapted to the same, because their own ranks are full of illegal alien workers. This in addition means claiming a large blocks of Union dues and more influence in the Congress. Even the Catholic church has been ostracized by it's practitioners, owing to child predatory nature of priest, who have been shielded by the church. Their religion has found a financial windfall, in illegal aliens crossing our distressed border from Catholic countries. The anti-sovereignty, pro-illegal immigration army is amassed against common sense. A new AMNESTY will bring millions more to America's shores and border. It will be another tremendous burden on taxpayers in caring for the poor, their children and sick. The danger to our countries resources is environmental catastrophe.
