Immigration: A Sensible Plan

Politicians like my opponent avoided illegal immigration for decades. Congressman Nadler has no plan. I do: 

 1) Decline asylum requests at the border.  

2) Asylum requests will only be made in the country of origin and be vetted there. 

3) Employment eligible ONLY after being granted asylum or a work visa. 

4) If entering the USA illegally you lose the right to claim asylum.

5) Close the border until Congress enacts a fair and safe legal immigration plan. 

6) Hire thousands more border patrol agents and similarly increase immigration court staff to end the multi-year backlog. 

7) Enforce labor laws by prosecuting and fining violating employers and companies.  

8) The recent Executive Order Immigration and Nationality Act sections 212(f) and 215(a) are inadequate, for it only limits unlawful entry of noncitizens at the Southern border to 2500/day (or over 900,000 annually). The number permitted must be zero until Congress passes a comprehensive immigration plan.

9) The millions here illegally get more costly help than homeless Americans in desperate need. This result is wrong and must end.
