I think the key to getting rid of illegal immigration, no matter where its coming from, is that you need to have a good legal apparatus for immigration.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think what we need to do is to have an immigration system where legal immigration is easier.
If we build the legal immigration system better, then they come here, and we'll have a whole lot less illegal immigration.
We must make immigration a legal, orderly process to eliminate this issue, not further criminalize it.
Immigration is a good thing. We should make that as easy as possible.
We must curtail the flow of illegal immigrants across the Mexican border.
We need to stop illegal immigration totally and reduce legal immigration and end the diversity visas policy pushed hard by President Clinton and allowing many persons from the Middle East to come to this country.
If you want to stop illegal immigration, you have to make it so that - so that the people that hire the illegal immigrants will not be in a position to hire them.
It's much too easy to come here illegally and very, very difficult to become an immigrant through lawful process. I think we need to reverse those.
But my view is that you need a system at the border. You need some fencing but you need technology. You need boots on the ground. And then you need to have interior enforcement of our nation's immigration laws inside the country. And that means dealing with the employers who still consistently hire illegal labor.
I'm not saying we need to stop immigration at all; people can come from wherever.
