Among those who may be affected by the new clampdown are undocumented Irish people living in the US illegally. My mother in Ireland had a housekeeper from the Philippines who, it turns out, was in Ireland illegally. I do not see a fix for US immigration laws happening any time soon, and that is a tragedy. Patrick Culliney, Prescott Valley: ‘Come in legit or stay at home’Having migrated from Ireland in 1963, I feel very strongly that people have to come into this country legally. Roy Jacks, Medina County: ‘I’m amazed that there’s nothing but contempt for our immigration laws and policies here’I’m of Irish decent.
