Immigrants are obliged to respect with gratitude the material and spiritual heritage of the country that receives them, to obey its laws and to assist in carrying civic burdens."

Doesn't this explictily refer to legal immigration?

Shouldn't have to say it, but the left will distort this.... This is about illegal immigration!!!!

Catechism of the Catholic Church "2241 ...Political authorities, for the sake of the common good for which they are responsible, may make the exercise of the right to immigrate subject to various juridical conditions...

"Juridical" means "subject to the administration of laws." That means legal immigration.
