We are getting results: Since 2001, we have removed more than 4.8 million illegal immigrants from the United States, including more than 300,000 with criminal records.

This is called 'catch-and-release,' and it is unacceptable.

When our borders are not secure, terrorists, drug dealers, and criminals find it easier to sneak into America.

We're going to get control of our borders.

America welcomes all who come here respecting our laws and is strengthened by those who come seeking opportunity.

We've got to stop people from coming here in the first place.

When our borders are not secure, terrorists, drug dealers, and criminals find it easier to sneak into our country.

We're doing everything we can to protect our borders and ports.

To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to authorize appropriations for refugee and entrant assistance for fiscal years 1998 and 1999.

To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to extend the special immigrant religious worker program, to amend the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 to extend the deadline for designation of an effective date for paperwork changes in the employer sanctions program, and to require the Secretary of State to waive or reduce the fee for application and issuance of a nonimmigrant visa for aliens coming to the United States for certain charitable purposes

I encourage all Americans to recognize and celebrate the many gifts that millions of people of German ancestry have brought to our national life.

America has always drawn its strength from the millions of people who have come here in search of freedom and the opportunity to live out their dreams.
