NYT: It ain't "amnesty"

It Isn't Amnesty - New York Times:

The path to citizenship laid out by the Specter bill wouldn't be easy. It would take 11 years, a clean record, a steady job, payment of a $2,000 fine and back taxes, and knowledge of English and civics. [...] The Specter bill isn't amnesty. It's a victory for thoughtfulness and reason.

I did some googling and could not find any confirmation of this - any of my friends with Harrisonburg connections know anything more?
