Sen Jeff Sessions (who I think is great for a number of reasons) is the only 1 that I’ve heard speaking out about jobs and lower and middle class citizens and how they’ll be affected by “immigration reform” (e.g., amnesty).

Rand Paul's immigration speech
...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.

Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.

Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.

Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.

If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...

This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.

Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform
Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...

Jeff Sessions. He’s probably the last one left on Earth.

Just another mealy mouthed politician who refuses to pit himself against the law breakers invading our country, who refuses to stand up for the ‘Rule of Law’ which has been the backbone of what helped to make America the greatest nation on earth for nearly 300 years. America does not need another forked-tongue politician who disrespects the law of the land and the American people. He is just one more in a growing line of pandering, lying politicians who will say anything to get elected.
