1. Physically secure our borders and coastlines. We must do whatever
it takes to control entry into our country before we undertake
complicated immigration reform proposals.
2. Enforce visa rules. Immigration officials must track visa
holders and deport anyone who overstays their visa or otherwise violates
U.S. law. This is especially important when we recall that a number of
9/11 terrorists had expired visas.
3. No amnesty. Estimates suggest that 10 to 20 million people are
in our country illegally. That’s a lot of people to reward for breaking
our laws.
4. No welfare for illegal aliens. Americans have welcomed
immigrants who seek opportunity, work hard, and play by the rules. But
taxpayers should not pay for illegal immigrants who use hospitals,
clinics, schools, roads, and social services.
5. End birthright citizenship. As long as illegal immigrants know
their children born here will be citizens, the incentive to enter the
U.S. illegally will remain strong.
6. Pass true immigration reform. The current system is incoherent
and unfair. But current reform proposals would allow up to 60 million
more immigrants into our country, according to the Heritage Foundation.
This is insanity. Legal immigrants from all countries should face the
same rules and waiting periods.
Makes sense to me. Sounds legal and fair. If people really want to make
something of themselves, they should work on fixing up their own
country. Just because you don't like your house does not give you a
right to sneak into mine. We have a sickening national apathy on this
issue and we need to decide to handle it.
