Groups, several different scenarios and we control for different periods of u. S. Residency, how long do people would people have to have been here in order to qualify. So theres about 3. 6 million unauthorized immigrants who dont qualify for daca who fall into one of these parent categories and about 1. 5 million spouses who dont qualify for daca, unauthorized immigrants who are spouses of citizens or bprs. Those categories overlap so theres about 4. 2 Million People who are either a spouse or parent. The numbers go down pretty substantially when you start adding on long residency requirements. So if youre only extending the program to people who have been here 5 or 10 or 15 years. So a few quick comments about this approach. You know, here again longtime residents with u. S. Based families have important equities that are generally recognized by our immigration system so we can certainly make humanitarian and normative arguments about why people like this should have an opportunity t

Office at ces in las vegas. It is the Largest Consumer Technology Show in the world. We took a look at the new technology on display. Host this is peter nowak of toronto, canada humans 3. 0 is his new book. What do you mean by 3. 0 . Guest i guess there are a couple ways to look at it. I was a top anthropologist and asked what age we were in evolutionary and this could be considered human 4. 0 actually but where i started from was i thought humans were largely segregated from nature and then we evolved through technology.
