The illegal immigration issue and subsequent anti-illegal immigrant response is something J.D. is closely monitoring, and weighing in on passionately. He believes that illegal immigration reform begins with enforcing existing laws, and he insists any policy changes in the illegal aliens debate occur once there is increased U.S. - Mexico border security. From the border security issue, he speaks on the unworkable nature of the proposed guest worker program, and how the U.S. Border Patrol needs the resolve to stop the invasion of the undocumented illegals.
U.S. – Mexico border security in the post-9/11 age is a national security issue, and that's why the illegal aliens debate engenders such passionate opposition. Illegal immigration reform, JD feels, rests upon a strong US border patrol, and an "enforcement first" approach. Illegal immigration will only increase, if Congress passes the guest worker program President Bush advocates. This proposed measure would give undocumented illegals de facto amnesty, and an incentive to continue ignoring our laws.
JD Hayworth believes undocumented illegal immigrants shouldn’t be handed de facto citizenship, simply because they “want to work”. Those involved in the debate who are characterized as "anti-illegal immigrants" can be more accurately described as "pro rule of law" They are rightly skeptical of any proposed guest worker program, and maintain that the U.S. Border Patrol and Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) have the resources necessary to enforce existing law on the U.S. - Mexico Border.
The illegal immigration issue and subsequent anti-illegal immigrant response, in the end, is one that requires we return to the rule of law in this country. He believes in illegal immigration reform, and he leads off the illegal aliens debate by calling for increased U.S. - Mexico border security. From the border security issue, he speaks on the unworkable nature of the proposed guest worker program, and how the United States Border Patrol simply needs more guards and manpower to shore up the wide-open border situation, which is allowing undocumented illegals – and potential terrorists - virtually unchecked access to our land and people.
