Cornyn’s amendment would require four "triggers" for illegal immigrants to go from Registered Provisional Immigrant (RPI) status to Legal Permanent Resident (LPR), or green card, status. Those triggers are a) 100 percent “situational awareness” of the border, b) “full operational control” or a 90 percent apprehension rate along the entire border, c) a “biometric exit system,” and d) a “nationwide e-verify system.” People could only take the next step on "the pathway to citizenship" when these criteria have been met using "newly defined security metrics."
