A "Gang of 8", which consist of senators are trying to make a deal on immigration reform. What the "gang of eight" are trying to do is come to an according. However, up to this point the negotiation has come to a halt with trying to decide on what to do with wages and visas for undocumented farm workers. Much of negotiation would deal with the wage levels, agricultural guest worker visas and protections for U. S. workers. Many argue that it would balance the farming needs of both the American farmers and immigrant farmers. The eight senators reached a conclusion on getting a path for citizenship that would affect up to about 11 million undocumented residents. The path to citizenship would take about 13 years for an immigrant to reach. The years would be divided into ten years for a green card and the three years to gain citizenship. However undocumented workers would have to pay a fine and back taxes, and pass a background check. This in hand will create a system for the border patrol system. No undocumented worker would be eligible for citizenship until the border is considered secure.
 However, when do they know when it is truly secure? It will take long for it to be truly secure with not only people coming in but also the war of drugs between the U.S and Mexico. On the other hand it would be of great work if the "gang of 8" would pass the reform.
