Immigration

Immigration policies should promote reunification of immediate families, meet economic and employment needs, and be responsive to those facing political persecution or humanitarian crises.

Fair Immigration Policy

This is some text inside of a div block.
We support a federal immigration law that provides an efficient, expeditious system for legal entry of immigrants into the United States including the DREAM ACT. We support policies to improve economies, education, job opportunities and living conditions in nations with large emigrating populations. We support provisions for unauthorized immigrants already in the country to earn legal status. We support federal payments to impacted communities to address the financial costs borne by states and local governments with large immigrant populations.
