If illegal immigrants become legal Americans, will they continue to work in agriculture, where they’ve worked now for a relative lack of other options, or will they try to move on to other better paying careers? I’d try to move on, or at least start expecting more money (even if I didn’t get it).

I also wonder what the new excuse will be. “Americans won’t do these jobs” would have to change, if they are given citizenship.

I’m not against the idea of amnesty (the word politicians are afraid of), I just wonder how well the reasoning being presented has been thought out.
