Immigration
“A country which cannot control its own borders will not remain a country for very long. We must lock down our borders. As someone whose parents risked everything to come to freedom in the United States, I understand the desire to live free in America, but we must encourage legal immigration while clamping down on illegal immigration. My family came here the right way, the legal way, and we’ve been blessed with a wonderful life in America.” –Ben Loyola
Our borders must be locked down and protected, plain and simple. Americans want their borders secure and their laws enforced. Illegal immigrants who break additional laws should receive swift justice and be deported as soon as possible.
We must encourage legal immigration, the kind that made America great. The world’s best and brightest once flocked to America legally and that must happen again. We need to take back control of our borders and keep our citizens safe from criminals, terrorists, and other undesirables that may seek to enter the country illegally.
Illegal immigration does not just hurt Americans; it hurts those that seek to enter the country with good intentions. Countless people die yearly, trying to enter the country illegally at the Mexican border. Drug cartels herd people into the backs of trucks where many suffocate and others die in the desert. This must be stopped.
The integrity of our borders must be kept paramount. We must eliminate illegal immigration.
In the Virginia Senate, Ben Loyola will give local and state law enforcement the tools they need to enforce our immigration laws and crack-down on illegal immigration.
