New Green Card Rules: Finally, Time Travel’s Made Legal

Sen. Alex Padilla’s bill aims to rewrite America’s immigration registry rule stuck in 1972, offering a chance for immigrants—including DACA and TPS recipients—to finally level up after living in the U.S. for seven years. His office drives home the point: 'The overwhelming majority of these undocumented immigrants have established roots in the U.S. They work in essential jobs and pay taxes.' Meanwhile, the Trump administration seems busy turning immigration into a very frustrating game of hide-and-seek with unmarked cars and masked agents. Oh, and don’t expect this bill to breeze through with Republicans running Congress.
