5. I think we need to deal with undocumented immigration
and I think after two amnesties already it is clear that has not resolved the situation, but only made it worse. I don't see how anarchy is good as policy, which is essentially what pro-immigration groups seem to really want.

I understand the economic issues, but when 500k people are entering the country through illegal channels that is a problem, and I don't see these groups offering solutions, they just want the government to allow it to continue. Maybe there is more to the story and SEIU actually has a position that will truly stem illegal immigration. In which case you can educate me. But so far all I hear is people that want the government to continue to allow a system that is unsustainable.

So I am not sure that cracking down on illegal immigrants can be stopped. I blame that as much on the immigrant "rights" groups who are unrealistic in their expectations.
