Some Alabamians Support Proposal To Let Illegal Immigrants Work Legally

A push to allow illegal immigrants to work legally in the U.S. is getting support in Alabama.

President George W. Bush calls it his Guest Worker Program.

Bush is pushing the program as a Homeland Security initiative and an economic booster.

This initiative would allow illegal immigrants to register for work, but some supporters here in Alabama want the idea to go a major step further.

Miguel Rodriguez is an illegal immigrant living in Alabama and looking for work. He said he likes the president's Guest Worker proposal since it could allow him to work for three to six years in the U.S, then return to Mexico.

His friend Fernando Gonzalez said the program would make it easier to earn an honest living.

"We know we're undocumented, but we also have needs. We have to pay rent, eat, everything. It's obvious we need a job he said," Gonzalez said.

The president re-introduced his temporary worker proposal this week. He's asking congress to give illegal immigrants the right to register and work in this country, but with time limits.

"Workers would be able to register for legal status for a fixed period of time, and then be required to go home," Bush said. "This program would help meet the demands of a growing economy and it would allow honest workers to provide for their families while respecting the law."

The measure is designed to help 11 million illegal U.S. immigrants to work legally in jobs the president said many Americans don't want.

They would be protected with better working conditions and employers would not be penalized for hiring illegal laborers.

"The problem is, many of the jobs that we see undocumented immigrants taking are jobs where they don't have protections, so they are put in greater risk," said Isabel Rubio, of the Hispanic Interest Coalition of Alabama. "The work is often times a lot more dangerous."

Some supporters want the program to go a step further, allowing illegal immigrants to earn legal residency status.

"After coming here and working and making roots in the community, becoming part of the society, it's very important for people to have that option," Rubio said.

It's a dream millions of illegal immigrants like Rodriguez and Gonzalez share. They are willing to work for the right to call the U.S. home, but not everyone is optimistic.

Bush faces major opposition in his own party and many Americans feel the work pass would take jobs away from legal residents. The issue will be debated for some time
