TIPPING POINT

In 2011, the United States reached a tipping point.

TWO CORE PRINCIPLES

The two core principles we advocate; an efficient workable system that recognizes the vital importance of immigration, coupled with genuine adherence to the rule of law, can form the foundation not only for bipartisan accord but for sound and enduring public policy.

REFORM NEEDED NOW

Given serious demographic challenges and increased competition from other countries we cannot afford to wait much longer to fundamentally reform our nation's immigration laws.

LIVING IN THE SHADOWS

Many illegal immigrants live in the shadows of society, often working in the black market, failing to pay their share of taxes, and serving as easy prey for criminals. But in many cases, they would not be here were it not for employers who are willing to hire illegal aliens and then exploit them because they're in no position to complain.

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

The failure of the rule of law in American immigration policy is manifested vividly in the estimated 11 to 12 million illegal immigrants residing in our country. Unlike the benefits that flow from legal immigration, the costs of illegal immigration are substantial.

NATURALIZATION

The framers of our Constitution made naturalization a matter of national policy for good reason. Control over immigration and the border is an essential attribute of national sovereignty.

BAROMETER OF ECONOMIC CONDITION

The call for a national policy that recognizes the critical importance of immigration is not a call for open borders.
