Issue Position: Immigration

Issue Position

Values

- According to the Department of Homeland Security, there are a total of nearly 11 million illegal immigrants residing in the United States. Allowing illegal immigrants to come into the United States and work here is unfair to law-abiding legal immigrants, undermines our national security, and encourages more illegal immigration.
- One of our top priorities should be defending America's borders and enforcing our laws, not accommodating those who break them. We must start by identifying and combating the constant flow of illegal immigrants into our country.
- Our immigration system is broken. I am aware of the impact illegal immigrants can have on our nation's economy and workforce. Federal law mandates that employers must only hire individuals who are eligible to legally work in the United States.
