Xochitl Torres Small on Immigration

For secure borders; against impractical wall

We need a clear and moral immigration system

Target criminals rather than ripping apart families

A: Our immigration system is broken. I saw this firsthand while clerking for a federal judge with one of the heaviest criminal dockets in the country. We must improve border security by investing in proven methods and by targeting criminals rather than ripping apart families. We must also improve our process for work visas and create a pathway to citizenship for immigrants without a criminal record.
