2020 NC Senatorial race: on Immigration


Cal Cunningham: Comprehensive immigration reform, protect DREAMers

Cal takes the safety and security of North Carolinians seriously, including border security. Cal believes we must pass comprehensive immigration reform that fixes our broken system and modernizes it for the economy of today, grows North Carolina's economy, protects DREAMers, and provides a fair pathway to citizenship. Instead of separating families and caging children, we should be investing in the necessary technology and trained staff to secure our borders.

Garland Tucker: Biggest issues are immigration & government spending

Tucker said, "I am a conservative I believe we need less government less spending and a secure border. The economy under Trump is phenomenal. As a long time Conservative, I see it as being out of the Reagan Playbook. The two big issues are immigration and government spending and I am looking forward to having a debate with Thom Tillis about these issues."
