2024 MS Senate race: on Immigration


Ty Pinkins: We need reform providing a reasonable path to citizenship

We need comprehensive immigration reform that fixes a broken immigration system, keeps our nation safe, and provides a reasonable path to citizenship, particularly those fleeing oppression in their countries of origin, whether that oppression be based on politics, religion, race, or sexuality.

While we do agree that those who seek to immigrate to the US should follow our laws and procedures, we do not believe that cruelty [towards immigrants] is in any way just.

    I will support legislation that:
  1. Decriminalizes migration and refocuses enforcement on serious criminal activity--people who want to work and become Americans should not be treated as criminals, but we should be able to deport more quickly anyone who comes here and abuses our laws and citizens.
  2. Provides rights and due process in our immigration courts, eliminates expedited removal, and ensures due process to all.

    Supports legal immigration and establishes a fair and achievable path to citizenship.

Dan Eubanks: A nation is only as sovereign as its borders

Secure out borders. A nation is only as sovereign as its borders. With 100,000 Americans a year dying of Chinese fentanyl which is crossing our southern border, the mass crossings of hundreds of thousands of bad actors from nations like China and the middle east (and who mean to do our nation harm), and the level of human trafficking that has followed in the wake of millions of illegals...it is our greatest national security threat which exists today.

Dan Eubanks: We've left the door wide open for undocumented people

The issues Eubanks are most concerned about involve the growing debt, and the growing numbers of illegal aliens crossing the southern border into the United States without the federal government doing more to stem the tide. "In addition to the almost five-and-a-half million people who have poured in that are undocumented in our country over the last 2-3 years, there is a drug pipeline there that's killing 100,000 Americans a year. We've left the door wide open for that element."
