No they don’t need ‘revised’. They need enforced!

Wrong.

Any sane immigration law would encourage the immigration of young and productive people who would contribute to the economy and pay taxes for 40+ years.

Our current immigration law has a byzantine quota system that discourages young people and focuses on "family reunification" rigmarole that brings granny from Karachi or Warsaw to the USA just in time for her to start collecting Social Security.

The system is broken and the laws are stupid.

I don't want to enforce a broken law Ted Kennedy wrote 40 years ago.

I want a smart law now.

“I want a smart law now. “

You’re mixing immigration and illegal immigration. Enforcement of our existing laws will work for II. Yes, our legal immigration system is FUBAR.

Let’s hear it.

What is your ‘smart law’? How many will you allow legally to enter the country each year? Do you plan on making them all ‘citizens’ since you said we need them here for 40 years?
