    This legislation sounds good at the beginning. The power given to Homeland Security is reduced with exceptions. Allow unwanted humans to become American citizens. American Republic has Homeland Security to do a job of protecting Americans. If Homeland Security denies any request, that is final ! Vote “NAY” as it is written.

    This bill should be passed because many Liberians are contributing positively to this country and they are not unwanted. Most of them are here all because their country is not not feasible or economic condusive to host them and no one can tell when that’s going to be. So it is the right thing to do to make these person Lawful Permanent Residents since majority of them have been living here for more than five years now and are having kids (who are American Citizens), buying houses and properties.
