John James (R): No public statement found. But opposes path to citizenship for America's 11 million illegal immigrants. "We must end illegal immigration" & secure the border.
Debbie Stabenow (D): Yes. Voted for original 2007 DACA bill that failed to pass. Has supported more money for border funding, mixed votes on path to citizenship.
A: I think a nation has the absolute right to know who's in the country and whether their lawfully or not. That's just a given. I don't really understand a contrary view that the nation does not have the right to enforce its integrity by identifying excluding if they choose, people that come into the country.
Q: What's your opinion on sanctuary cities?
A: There's a bill in the house now to penalize cities in Michigan who take that position and I think that's the absolute right response to that insanity.
A: What about a pathway to citizenship?
Q: My view is that any solution now to immigration must exclude the possibility of rewarding those who came into the country illegally with a pathway to citizenship. Whatever we do with that population we cannot by virtue of violating our laws allow them to become citizens.
A: We have the right to know who's in our country, I mean I can't even understand the contrary argument. We have a right to know who's in our country, we have a right to kick people out that we don't want here. I absolutely agree with the president that we have to have a sane border policy.
A: Support
