Issue Position: Illegal Immigration

Issue Position

First, immigration laws already on the books must be fully enforced. We must truly secure our borders and return as many people coming to our country illegally as possible. We should certainly cut off any foreign aid to countries assisting people coming into our country illegally.

We need to end America's attractive draw for illegal immigration by eliminating government benefits, such as, welfare, in-state tuition, food stamps, housing subsidies and free medical benefits for people here illegally. US citizenship for "anchor babies" must be ended. States should be allowed to enforce immigration law to protect their borders if the federal government fails to exercise this responsibility, as it is a matter of safety for these states.

People in the United States illegally should not be brought to Michigan, but should remain near the border where found, as to assist in expedient return to their country of origin. And no amnesty for people breaking the law and coming to our country illegally.
