Tough, fair reform that restores the rule of law
America needs a realistic approach to immigration that is tough, fair and practical--tough in terms of better enforcement and border security; fair meaning that taxpayers should
not have to shoulder unfair burdens; and practical so that any reform effectively addresses the problem and restores the rule of law.

Require illegal immigrants to return to country of origin
Q: Do you support requiring illegal immigrants to return to their country of origin before they are eligible for citizenship?
A: Yes. American is a nation built on laws. Any immigration reform must respect those immigrants who have played by the rules despite economic hardship or short term family separation.
