"The time to fix our broken immigration system is now… We need stronger enforcement on the border and at the workplace… But for reform
to work, we also must respond to what pulls people to America… Where we
can reunite families, we should. Where we can bring in more
foreign-born workers with the skills our economy needs, we should”
-Barack Obama, Statement on U.S. Senate Floor, May 23, 2007
McCain on Immigration
"...When we have
achieved our border security goal, we must enact and implement the
other parts of practical, fair and necessary immigration policy. We
have economic and humanitarian responsibilities as well, and they
require no less dedication from us in meeting them."
