Brian Dahle: Streamline path to citizenship, cooperate with ICE on crime

Our nation has immigration laws, and I do not believe we can simply ignore laws we don't like.

That said, we've had decades of a failed immigration system. I'm an advocate of streamlining the path to citizenship. One thing I would change as soon as possible in California are the disastrous policies that let violent criminals who are also in the country illegally back onto our streets to commit more crimes instead of turning them over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
