I fully support President Trump’s Immigration Plan. As a Counsel to the head of the former Immigration and Naturalization Service  (INS), I understand the urgent gravity of stopping this Biden- Miorkas madness.  The security and humanitarian damage deliberately created by them is nearly incalculable. 

As an experienced international businessman, I know well the imperfect compromises that went into writing the existing law. It is a balance of Big Business search for low wage workers, family ties, and humanitarian and other considerations. While I disagree with several components of the existing law, it allows for about one million immigrants a year.

However, Biden’s twisted and illegal manipulation of the system deliberately let in over nine million illegal entrants, four times New Mexico’s total population, nine times the number allowed under current law, and more than the population of 38 states! This, at a cost of $180 billion dollars!

Tens of millions of deserving and qualified people  can wait years to get a immigrant visa legally. But these illegal  “asylum seekers” are trying to jump to the head of the line.  As we learned in grade school, that is wrong and should not be allowed ! By current law, only about 5% of these illegal entrants will qualify for asylum, as they should be properly classified “economic migrants” .  And the rest? Biden intends  to look the other way as they just melt away, unvetted, undeported, indefinitely getting free phones, medical care and free housing, and depressing wages for lower income Americans and legal immigrants.  

Kackling Kamala  gave away the game recently, when she stated that the Biden goal is to make their transition to citizenship as easy as possible. It is not right to let them skip to the head of the line!  It is unfair and demeaning to the tens of millions of new Americans who patiently waited and came legally over the last few decades.  The point will be driven home especially poignantly when a terrorist sleeper cell commits it first atrocity.
