The head of an immigration officers’ union warned House Republicans on Thursday that plans for mass legalization would “overwhelm the system.”
“Your plan, as explained in media stories and leaks, would grant citizenship to illegal immigrants through green cards while also expanding the number of work visas. This is a step in the wrong direction and flies in the face of what we are attempting to do,” the National Citizenship and Immigration Services Council president Kenneth Palinkas wrote in a letter to House Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte.
The union represents immigration officers responsible for reviewing and assessing applications for legal status in the United States
“There is no quality here only quantity,” he continued. “[United States Citizenship and Immigration Services] is not equipped to handle this workload, and due to political interference in its mission, is not empowered to deny admission to all those who should be denied dues to in eligibility.”
Palinkas urged House Republicans to work with the members of his union and consider their concerns as they move forward with immigration reform.
