Karin Housley on Immigration

 

 


Supports path to legal status for DREAMers

Housley is a legislator married to current NHL head coach and worked in TV, radio and real estate. She was elected to the state Senate in 2012. I decided to put this post up to give you access to one of her first interviews. She broke with Trump on a couple of things--she is an enthusiast for net neutrality, she's for a path to legal status for the "dreamers";ÿ she made a strong pitch gay rights, without specifics.

Backs pathway to citizenship for DREAMers

Housley said she is sympathetic with the "Dreamers"--those stuck in the immigration debate over allowing a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants brought over by their parents as children. "I don't think it's right to tell them go back to their country because this is the only country they have ever known," Housley said. "We really need to make sure there is a path for them to remain here. I'm really hoping that will be settled by March."

Supports border infrastructure, according to CC survey.

Housley supports the CC survey question on border security

The Christian Coalition Voter Guide inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Increase Border Security Including Additional Infrastructures ' Christian Coalition's self-description: "Christian Voter Guide is a clearing-house for traditional, pro-family voter guides. We do not create voter guides, nor do we interview or endorse candidates."
