We must demand order on the southern border

We must demand order on the southern border. We are decades into the federal government not enforcing our laws and refusing to deal with immigration reform. It is simply inexcusable. The result is state and local governments are forced to deal with the resulting issues like education, healthcare, workforce and law enforcement. More importantly, the failure to reform and enforce an immigration policy creates a national security threat at every entry point to the U.S., and exploits the vulnerable.

Fight any pathway to citizenship for those here illegally

Illegal immigration and a porous southern border undermine the rule of law and make our communities less safe. I will demand order on our nation's southern border, support the wall, oppose amnesty, veto benefits for illegal immigrants, and fight any pathway to citizenship for those here illegally. I'll support efforts to closely coordinate with federal immigration enforcement to ensure that our nation's laws are aggressively enforced here in Nebraska.
