It absolutely includes a path to citizenship, even though it doesn't explicitly state it. I worked with immigration for 3 years (2000-2003), so I can see the path being allowed even though the word "citizenship" isn't being used.
I agree with Sen. Paul on this.

There is always a path to legal citizenship in this country.
You're post, I responded to, came across as blanket amnesty, and that is not his plan.
He is saying that Congress would have to show that border security was progressing, annually, for five years in order for his other reforms to move forward. I'll not comment on details as I haven't seen the transcript yet.
