Zaccaria adds, "There is already a path to citizenship for those coming to America to become Americans. Each year that path is taken by more new US Citizens than all other nations on earth admit. Our problem is with those coming here only for economic purposes. For them we need to have an easy to use Guest Worker program (9 months in, 3 months out) and robust sanctions against scofflaw employers to shut of under-the-table exploitation opportunities."
