Issue Position: Immigration Reform & Border Security

Our nation's immigration and border security system is badly broken. It leaves our borders unprotected, threatens our national security, and makes a mockery of the rule of law. The system has suffered from years of neglect, and in a post-9/11 world, we cannot tolerate this situation any longer. National security demands a comprehensive solution to our immigration system — and that means both stronger enforcement and reasonable reform of our immigration laws. We must solve this problem — and solve it now."

-- Senator John Cornyn

As the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee's Immigration, Refugees and Border Security Subcommittee, Senator Cornyn has led the fight to restore integrity to our immigration system and secure America's borders. He has chaired or co-chaired almost a dozen hearings on border security and immigration reform. His advocacy has resulted in thousands of new agents at the borders, increased assistance and funding for state and local efforts, and stronger worksite enforcement initiatives. He continues to lead the effort in the 110th Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform legislation.
