I think illegal immigrants who work hard and aren't criminals should be given a path to citizenship or at least legalization, and immigration laws should be better and more consistently enforced moving forward.

In any case, the illegal immigrants here already pay all kinds of taxes, including sales tax, property tax, social security... The U.S. Social Security Administration estimated that in 2013 undocumented immigrants—and their employers—paid $13 billion in payroll taxes alone for benefits they will never get. They can receive schooling and emergency medical care, but not welfare or food stamps.

I agree that illegals should be able to gain citizenship faster. Its a long process but giving them a pass is not the way to go.
