There are very few topics which divide the republcians and democrats further than the issue of immigration. Here is my take on an ideal immigration plan:
The US needs to tighten up on its border security. I don't think it's wise to waste money on a thousand mile long wall between the US and mexico but donald trump is right when he says that it's far too easy to sneak into the US. We should also reduce funding to sanctuary cities and deport all illegal immigrants. However, america needs to make it easier to obtain a green card and it needs to increase the amount of work visas. The US needs to bring foreign aid to the impoverished mexican comminities and criticize the mexican government for police brutality and its poor record of protecting people from gang violence. Granted, mexico's gang violence has toned down but the gap between the rich and the poor needs to be addressed.
For syrian refugees, we should accept them but we need to make sure that they have no terrorist links. If they have any terrorist links, put them in maximum security prisons
