At Odds with/over Language, Again.

In Levine Breaking News, June 7, 2007, I read the following:
"A broad immigration bill to legalize millions of people in the U.S. unlawfully failed a crucial test vote in the Senate Thursday..."
Le me ask:
to legalize millions of people unlawfully?
people in the US unlawfully?
the bill failed a crucial test vote unlawfully?
I'm all mixed up. Per usual.
The use of language is unpredictable and chaotic.
