I support amnesty because I think a healthy US economy benefits all citizens. Plus, it is just the right thing to do.
Adding millions of poor people to our already maxed-out welfare system is not the right thing to do. I don't understand why people cannot understand this. We are nearly 18 trillion in debt.
Housing, foodstamps, education (and school meals), hospitals, prisons, etc. - we're paying for all of it, and these immigrants rely heavily upon it. That's a big part of why they can send so much cash to family back south of the border despite earning low wages - we pick up the tab here.
