I really need more information. I do not want a plan that allows millions more on welfare, millions more who will vote for any Democrat to get unmerited entitlements.

I am personally offended by this bill and find it repugnant that Marco Rubio, of all people, would join with Liberals and RINOs on this (although not surprised since HIS family didn't leave Cuba running away from Castro). My family and I left our country running from COMMUNISM, and did not come to this country…

Immigration reform must definitely be addressed. We do need to create some way to legitimize those who are here, but we also must make sure they are fully supporting themselves. Border security must be addressed before anything else is put into place. If they are not working and being contributing members of society, they must…

I have heard Marco Rubio's plan for immigration and if this legislation turns out to be close, then I think it will work. But based on the general statements at the press conference, I am wary. The idea of a probation period for those that are already here is great. And a 12-15 year period…

The Cherokee County, SC Republican Party heard Sen. Graham today at lunch. He and RNC member Glenn McCall spoke at length about the immigration issue. What I heard made sense, especially the part about making sure we knew who was here and why; for example, making sure those with student visas really were students and…

As a nation we need to have a comprehensive immigration policy moving forward. Yes, we need to better secure the borders. We also have to realize it is probably impossible to deport all the illegal immigrants who are now here. I do not know all the details of the bipartisan Senate proposal but what I…
