Do a google on “rand paul and immigration bill” and you will find many sources of what he has said regarding the bill.

He sent a letter to the Senate which included the following:

“I respectfully request that the Senate consider the following two conditions as part of the comprehensive immigration reform debate:One, the Senate needs a thorough examination of the facts in Massachusetts to see if legislation is necessary to prevent a similar situation in the future. Two, national security protections must be rolled into comprehensive immigration reform to make sure the federal government does everything it can to prevent immigrants with malicious intent from using our immigration system to gain entry into the United States in order to commit future acts of terror.”

So he supports immigration reform but does not list illegal immigration as one of his reasons for further discussion.

“Immigration reform” is political speak for amnesty whether Paul says it or Rubio does.

I prefer to listen to what he says and writes on the topic rather then buy the media spin on what he says and writes. I DO NOT TRUST THE MEDIA to report fairly on any real conservative. I go to his web site for info, you apparently go to the Hoffington Post.

Wouldn’t “reforming” the current hole filled system to have fewer holes still be “reform”?

So, you approve of the CURRENT system.

IOW... You just don’t like Rand and will say anything, even if it make you sound like an idiot.

My Senator Ted Cruz supports immigration reform he is an amnesty lover too? Both Cruz and Paul want two things secure the border and enforce the laws with no new pathway to citizenship. Paul will allow some illegals to stay in country on a work visa, if you want to call that amnesty well ok it is a kindof amnesty but that is not what most people think amnesty means when talking about illegal immigration.
