This article by Tom Giovanetti compares the Dignity Act with past U.S. immigration and pardon policies. It references Jimmy Carter’s 1977 pardon of draft evaders and Ronald Reagan’s 1986 immigration reform. The piece notes those policies granted broad or structured legal relief. It states the Dignity Act instead imposes conditions and does not provide a direct path to citizenship.
