Mike Beebe on Immigration

Former Democratic Governor

Significantly increase border security

Illegal immigration is compromising our national security, impacting our economy and is the single biggest source of illegal methamphetamines coming into America. We need to significantly increase border security and tighten enforcement of immigration laws, including tougher penalties for companies that knowingly hire undocumented workers.

We need to make sure illegal immigrants learn English, pay any back taxes & a fine, before they can get in the back of the line to be considered for legal status.
