I absolutely advocate for comprehensive immigration reform.

I support legal immigration.

Immigration reform is a must, an amnesty. So that's my position. I've been pushing that one since before it was popular.

I will support a path to citizenship if it does not fall within the definition of amnesty, and we've got to define what amnesty is in this country.

I am more than an immigration activist.

I do not favor or support, nor will I vote for, a pathway to citizenship for people that are here who've broken the law. I would support - after we have developed a secure border - a mechanism for allowing those folks to work here in America... Everything that we should do should be based on good, sound policy and what's right for America.

It's clear that we need comprehensive immigration reform.

I support legal immigration. I don't support amnesty because it is not fair to people standing in line at consulates around the world.

I started getting more and more active around immigration reform because this was such a waste of lives, such a waste of potential, such a waste for our country not to have the human capital that we developed - geared toward improving our entire society.

I support concrete and progressive immigration reform based on three primary criteria: family reunification, economic contributions, and humanitarian concerns.
