Gary Trauner on Immigration

Protect DREAMers; allow refugees; continue existing vetting

• Provides for border security, including patrol agents, technology and barriers where appropriate (for example, urban areas).
• Continues the strong and fair vetting process already in place.
• Allows for a humane number of refugees from countries torn by war, discrimination and violence--it is a moral obligation.
• Allows for a reasonable number of economic immigrants to help staff jobs in industries where it is difficult to find American workers.
• Encourage companies to pay living wages and benefits that will entice American workers into taking challenging jobs.
• Protects DACA "Dreamers"--those who came here through no choice of their own and who only know America as their home country.
