Protect the borders; prevent illegal entry

Question topic: Government should enforce laws designed to protect the border and to prevent illegal entry of persons into the country.

Hansen: Strongly Agree. Our borders need to be secured and all illegals deported before any changes are made to the immigration system. This is our nation's biggest security threat.

Illegal aliens are foreign invaders

Q: Do you support or oppose the statement, "Pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens"?

A: Illegal aliens are foreign invaders. They have broken the law. We should not reward people who break the laws of our country. They need to go back where they came from and apply for citizenship the same way other people do legally and go to the end of the line. I feel bad for the children of these families but their parents are the cause of their situation, not the American taxpayer.
