- Create Secure Borders
- Improve our Immigration System
- Bring people out of the shadows
- Remove Incentives to Enter Illegally
“We’re going to make them pay a fine, they are going to have to learn English, they are going to have to go to the back of the line…but they will have a pathway to citizenship over the course of 10 years.” President Barack Obama
This proposal sounds a little out of touch, because immigrants usually don’t have enough money to live let alone pay fines. But there must to be an ethical pathway to citizenship.
The Humanitarian Party Proposed Immigration Law
Every illegal immigrant would be required to register for the naturalization process. There would be a 5 – 10 year plan for each immigrant to complete their naturalization process.
- Improve border security by use of all available technology (Personnel, Drones, Structures, Cameras, etc..)
- Immigrants register with the naturalization department upon entry into the United States
- Put in place a system allowing companies to hire immigrants that are active in the naturalization process
