Know the issues...
A study just released by House Judiciary Committee states that many nations take a more unforgiving view toward illegal aliens than the US. Not that the actions of other nations should drive the US policy toward those who breach our borders illegally.
What if all nations were lenient, excepting the US? What would we do then? Open the borders, disband security and allow any and all to enter the country and draw from our resources?
Chair Sensenbrenner's March 27th statement does a fair job of explaining his position on H.R. 4437 and the issue of making illegal entry a felony. One may not agree with his position, which is softer than the media have led us to believe, but the insider information that those harsh provisions are the result of a Democrat agenda to make the bill too hard to swallow is very telling.
All of those with an interest in this issue, citizens, legal residents, illegal aliens and supporters on both sides of the issue should study both the comparison of Section 274/Section 202 and the section-by-section explanation of H.R 4437. No one should depend on the rhetoric of the opposition or those they agree with, nor should they trust the characterization of the bill or the surrounding issues as presented by the media.
Take the time to read it, study it and understand it.
The Honolulu Star Bulletin, in an opinion piece, quotes then comments, "'Today we march, tomorrow we vote,' but politicians might not be worried. Of course, illegal aliens cannot vote, and only 47 percent of eligible Latino voters cast ballots in the last election..."
Yes, illegal aliens, nor even legal, non-citizen resident immigrants can legally vote in US elections. But the assumption that since they cannot "legally" vote no party or organization will attempt to persuade them to vote "illegally" is an exercise in pure Pollyanna thinking.
If anything, our recent elections have informed us of the drastic measures the left will take to try and win elections. Registering the underage or criminal who cannot legally vote. Stuffing the ballot box with votes from deceased voters or those who have moved out of precinct has been found to be prevalent among those Democrat votes.
At a recent pro-illegal alien rally in Arizona, it was widely published that a voter registration booth would be working, and there's little doubt they were careful as to the registrants legality. You can be sure that was only one of many registration drives taking place as these events.
They broke the law of the land when they crossed the borders illegally, so we are now supposed to believe they will follow the laws when it comes to issues that will effect whether or not they will remain here? I can't buy that, and neither should you.
Study: Many nations harder on illegal immigrants than U.S.

Immigrant bill should balance enforcement, compassion
