We want to do this methodically, smart, starting with border security then looking at immigration reform measures.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We must pursue immigration reform - it's something we have to do, something that starts with border security.
It is vitally important that we implement immigration reform. We need a bill that strengthens our borders and protects this nation, but that also makes it simpler for good people to become Americans.
I think what we need to do is to have an immigration system where legal immigration is easier.
Next, we will create a modern immigration law.
It's clear that we need comprehensive immigration reform.
Our immigration policy should be driven by what is in the best interest of this great country and the American people. Comprehensive immigration reform will strengthen U.S. security and boost economic growth.
Going forward, as we work to strengthen our border in the interests of homeland security, we must also recognize the economic importance of immigration reform.
Should we attempt border security first, which I believe we should, we still need to face the fact that comprehensive reform is necessary. This must include a guest worker program and dealing with the 11 million people who are here today that are contributing to our economy.
We have got to secure the border and enforce existing immigration laws.
Our immigration system is a broken system that needs to be fixed. We need reform that provides hardworking people of good character with a real path towards citizenship.
