Josh Hawley on Immigration

 

 


Amnesty is not the answer; supports border wall

Q: Support DREAM Act (DACA), allowing "Dreamers" who arrived illegally as children, then grew up in the US, to achieve legal status if meet certain conditions? Support path to citizenship for America's 11 million illegal immigrants?

Josh Hawley (R): Opposes general path to citizenship. "Amnesty is not the answer." Supports Trump border wall. Position on DACA unclear. Criticized McCaskill for "giving illegal immigrants a free pass and allowing them to use children as a human shield."

Claire McCaskill (D): Voted for 2010 DREAM Act. Worked on bipartisan immigration proposal with path to citizenship for DACA kids combined with more border security. Opposes Trump's wall and family separations. Has opposed general path to citizenship for illegal immigrants.

Immigration laws need overhaul but not via executive order

President Obama recently announced that he was dissatisfied with America's immigration laws--which he only sometimes bothers to enforce--and so he has decided to change them. By executive order.ÿI suspect most Americans think our immigration policy is in need of an overhaul. But the Constitution says that laws are written by Congress, the people's elected representatives, and enforced by the president. President Obama's attempt to rewrite immigration law threatens this separation of powers.

Hawley supports the CC survey question on border security

The Christian Coalition Voter Guide inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Increase Border Security Including Additional Infrastructures ' Christian Coalition's self-description: "Christian Voter Guide is a clearing-house for traditional, pro-family voter guides. We do not create voter guides, nor do we interview or endorse candidates."
