Like all other law-abiding Americans, I fully support legal immigration.
Immigration is the ultimate entrepreneurship.
I believe all of us love legal immigration. We love how the diversity adds to our country.
President Obama’s executive actions on immigration are designed to temporarily address major flaws in our broken immigration system.
It could be construed that the reason I wouldn’t wish to live in England is the immigration explosion. And that’s not true at all.
The further left you are, the more your concern for the underdog crowds out everything else, leading you to overlook inconsistencies. You might, for example, argue for immigration and multiculturalism in the UK, but not in the Amazon. You might demand equality before the law and, at the same time, gender quotas.
There is overwhelming bipartisan support outside of Washington that we need to finally secure our borders, enforce our laws, and stop the problem of illegal immigration.
Mass immigration changes countries beyond recognition. Ordinary people are well aware of that.
America was indebted to immigration for her settlement and prosperity. That part of America which had encouraged them most had advanced most rapidly in population, agriculture and the arts.
Republicans can’t always agree on where to cut spending. They certainly can’t agree on what to do about entitlements. There isn’t a unified foreign policy vision, and there’s no consensus on immigration reform.
If I am elected president we will secure the border and we will end the illegal immigration.
The underlying part of any comprehensive immigration bill is family unit.
The bedrock of this country are immigration and, really, a great separation between church and state.
Even though the method of ‘Harvest’ was a historical novel, its intentions were that of a modern novel. I’m asking you to think about land being seized in Brazil by soya barons. It’s also a novel about immigration.
Our nation’s immigration policy has been of top concern in recent years, and for good reason. With between eight and twelve million illegal aliens in the United States, it is obviously a problem out of control.
A broken immigration system means broken families and broken lives.
Immigration laws are the only laws that are discussed in terms of how to help people who break them.
At almost every step of modern immigration policy and immigration politics, we have exacerbated underlying problems and made things worse.
Few people are as well-situated to speak about the laudable benefits of a humane immigration policy than me.
To argue that it is unconstitutional for local law enforcement to be a legitimate partner in immigration enforcement is shortsighted. It is evidence of a lack of commitment to securing our borders and a lack of appreciation for the proper role of the states in supporting federal law enforcement priorities.
We know that the United States Senate has passed comprehensive immigration reform. We know it can happen. And that, to me, is what we need to do. We have a broken immigration system. And I say this because we are a country that has always opened our doors. That’s who we are.
Hospitals are closing across the country due to the burden of illegal immigration, college students find that summer jobs have dried up due to illegal immigration, and wages across the board are depressed by the overwhelming influx of cheap and illegal labor.
Illegal immigration continues to be a major problem in the United States. We have people waiting to come here legally. And we should not be rewarding people who have come here illegally.
I strongly support the bipartisan immigration measure previously passed by the Senate, and when I served in Congress I was proud to have helped introduce the House version of the bill. I also strongly support the DREAM Act.
We need to stop illegal immigration totally and reduce legal immigration and end the diversity visas policy pushed hard by President Clinton and allowing many persons from the Middle East to come to this country.
The power of immigration, the power of the American dream, if you think about the American dream, it is the best brand out there.
I have traveled around Minnesota and addressed many issues, and immigration is one of those issues.
The immigration system itself must be quick, fair and efficient at coming to decisions.
For me, the most important issue in the Republican presidential contest is immigration and its effect on our national security. On that issue Mr. Trump stands head and shoulders above the other candidates.
Let me state the obvious. Illegal immigration is illegal, duh.
Fixing a broken immigration system. Protecting our kids from gun violence. Equal pay for equal work, paid leave, raising the minimum wage. All these things still matter to hardworking families; they are still the right thing to do; and I will not let up until they get done.
