I don’t know where this idea came from that you have to look the other way on illegal immigration or you’re racist, but every other country on earth secures their border and America should too. It’s utterly reasonable to want a functional border, and don’t let anyone convince you otherwise. Democrats should make securing the border and fixing our immigration system a top priority. Drugs. Sex trafficking. Terrorism. There are a million risks to doing nothing on the issue. And, the drain on local resources is real. Here in Massachusetts, illegal immigrants have overwhelmed our emergency shelter system. We had to massively expand it at a huge cost to our yearly state budget.
