Rick Perry Calls For "Lengthy Conversation" On What To Do With Illegals
"Well, one of the things we're not going to do is support amnesty. There's not anybody that’s going to be -- I don't care whether you've been here 25 days or 25 years -- there's not going to be amnesty involved in the program,” Rick Perry said on FOX News' "On the Record" with Greta van Susteren.
“Americans have made it very clear that they’re not going to support amnesty. There are a host of ways to address this issue. But I’m not going to sit here and go through and talk about all the different options because there may be some ideas that haven’t been talked about yet," Perry said on Tuesday evening.
“We ought to have that conversation with the part-time Congress and with the people of this country on how do we want to deal with this. There a people that are going say: 'You know what? We’re going to allow you to pay a fine,'” Perry said.
“Are there people that are going to say: ‘Listen, we’re going to send you back to your country of origin, and you apply for a new type of immigration program that we’re putting into place to speed up the ability for people who have certain skills to come in and be engaged.
