Senator Ron Johnson on immigration reform

Johnson has said in the past farmers in his state rely on immigrant workers, but he hopes the introduction of the RAISE Act and the reintroduction of the DREAM Act will lead to productive discussions on comprehensive immigration reform.

“Well, what I’m hoping is the bill that senators Perdue and Cotton introduced possibly combined with my own guest worker visa program managed by the states, combined with what Lindsey Graham and Dick Durbin are doing will start a serious discussion in terms of what we need to do in terms of fixing our incredibly broken legal immigration system,” he told host Jake Tapper.

The fact that he is a GOP Senator is good news.

The Trump effect has left a shortage of crop workers. Let the country starve!! Now they know they really needed us after all

Ron Johnson on Immigration

Address comprehensive reform after border is secure

Q: On Immigration: Should America's 11 million undocumented residents have an earned path to citizenship?
Feingold: Yes
Johnson: No. Opposed 2013 bipartisan bill. Said would consider addressing after border is secure. Strong focus on first increasing border security. Then open to considering "step by step" approach to reform legislation, including such steps as E-Verify and a guest worker program. Could then consider path to citizenship.

I oppose blanket amnesty for illegal aliens

Q: Should Congress create a path to citizenship for the large number of unauthorized immigrants currently living in the United States?
A: I oppose blanket amnesty for illegal aliens. The federal government has failed to secure our borders and that should be our top priority. I support enforcement on businesses that knowingly hire illegal aliens and prohibiting taxpayer-funded benefits for illegal aliens.

Secure the borders first; no blanket amnesty later

"First and foremost the federal government must act to secure our borders," says Johnson. Ron believes the federal government has failed to enforce current immigration laws and tighten our borders to stop the flow of illegal immigration. Ron opposes blanket amnesty.
Ron also supports REAL ID. Businesses or employers who knowingly hire illegal immigrants should be penalized and we should take steps to prevent abuse or exploitation of workers due to their immigration status.

You are a far left, open borders, immigration extremist

so many hate in this website. the type of ppl that will go against all undocumented just bc they got there green card.

It was mostly a joke. But what can I expect from a closeted trump supporting, self hating, white nationalist.

Sticking to the topic at hand, it's good to see someone that was even against the 2013 bill, talk about CIR. I just wanna let him know he's not getting the Raise act.

This is dreamer forum. Not all undocs forum.
