Our immigration system is broken. That’s why Congressman McKinley believes that any immigration reform must start with securing our borders and taking interior enforcement of our immigration laws seriously before we do anything else. There are already laws on the books governing these principles and they need to be enforced. Lastly, while Congressman McKinley believes that immigration reform is necessary, he will not support “amnesty” to anyone who has entered this country illegally.
