long article, but lots to consider….
If every migrant or refugee has the right to come to the United States, what is the point of visas?
If illegal immigration is embraced, what is the benefit for adhering to the laws and regulations which govern legal immigration? President Trump has sought to reduce the State Department’s budget. Would immigration activists propose that Trump slash most if not all consular positions? After all, if visas are beside the point, why maintain a staff to issue them? And if the visa process is arbitrary, what does that mean for all the background and security checks worked into the system? Proponents of the Obama administration’s efforts to welcome Syrian refugees, for example, sought to assure the public that each would go through multiple background checks before ever stepping foot on American soil. If those checks served any purpose, why should every other potential migrant not meet the same standard of vetting before reaching the United States?
