Obama's New DHS Chief: Amnesty for Illegals 'Matter of National Security'

The new Homeland Security secretary says an earned path to citizenship for the roughly 11 million immigrants living in the United States illegally is a matter of national security.
It was the first time Jeh Johnson, who had little experience with immigration policy before he was appointed, had outlined his approach on the subject.
The Defense Department's former top lawyer, who worked on U.S. drone policies and helped end the Pentagon's ban on gays in the military, said offering a path to citizenship would encourage such immigrants "to come out of the shadow, to be accountable, to participate in the American experience."
Maybe someone can explain to me how giving citizenship to millions of illegal is a matter of national security, but the fact that we have 11 million largely unknown interlopers in our country and how they got here isn't a matter of national security?

The usage of the number of illegals standing at a static point of 11 million for over a decade is a friggen big assed bad joke. If reform comes from Congress or the executive pen that number will be confirmed at 30 plus million. The social welfare money that will be spent will be monumental to say the least.

It's not a matter of Nat'l security. He's an idiot and a puppet.

I think the 11 million figure is for South Texas alone.

We just don't know their names.

Would you support amnesty if those people were not eligible for entitlements and had to pay the highest tax bracket no matter what their income was?

Why is citizenship dependent on the Benajmins? They are and will receive entitlements no matter what.

Because they will show up no matter what. Unless it is specifically written in the law, they or their naturalized children will receive entitlements, tax breaks, free health care, etc. any punishment the US puts on illegals will not stop them from coming (unless we shoot them like China). Might as well get them to pay for the benefits they are receiving.

Even baby boomers who have diligently paid taxes/SS/Medicare their whole lives will never pay enough to cover the cost of their own benefits. It doesn't surprise me when there are people taking money when someone is handing it out.

Closing the border is a "matter of national security". Try coming from a country south of Mexico and let's see if you get the same treatment.

This is about Dem votes...They know what's coming after the Nation sees their policies. Whether its felon or illegals, they are about stealing elections, expanding their influence, and robbing tax payers....

So when did granting amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants become a matter of national security is my main question?
I mean having a virtually non existent border allowing the said millions to sneak into the country, that was never a matter of national security, America is finished with these treasonous bastards in charge.

The treat this retard will not admit is our lax security at our Southern border. Just imagine if just 5 of those 11 million had been terrorists with a nuclear device. Sadly it might take a nuclear strike for the idiots to realize the importance.
