Like other discriminatory legislation in our country's history, immigration laws define and differentiate legal status on the basis of arbitrary attributes. Immigration laws create unequal rights. People who break immigration laws don't cause harm or...
Like all other law-abiding Americans, I fully support legal immigration.

Sen. Robert Menendez's Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2010 would try to nullify every single state and local law that fights illegal immigration. Congressman Luis Gutierrez's CIR ASAP Act with over 100 Democratic co-sponsors does the same th...
The economic impact of illegal immigration on taxpayers is catastrophic.
I absolutely advocate for comprehensive immigration reform.
It is simply a fact that the birth rate of our illegal immigrants exceeds that of our legal residents.
Next, we will create a modern immigration law.
People have to stop employing illegal immigrants.
The U.S. immigration laws are bad - really, really bad. I'd say treatment of immigrants is one of the greatest injustices done in our government's name.
