"Although our borders have become far more secure in recent years..."

Nonsense.

"We have no way to track whether the millions who enter the United States on valid visas each year leave when they are supposed to."

Reinstate alien registration.

"employers are burdened by a complicated system for verifying workers' immigration status."

It's not that complicated.

"We would bolster recent efforts to secure our borders"

Secure the borders first.

"For the 11 million immigrants already in this country illegally, we would provide a tough but fair path forward."

The actual number is larger than that. In any case, a country with 20% under- or unemployment cannot afford open borders.

Excellent point! Could someone please advise DHS & the Dream Team in the Oval Office?

“”Although our borders have become far more secure in recent years...”

LOL! I can’t breathe ;-)

“”We have no way to track whether the millions who enter the United States on valid visas each year leave when they are supposed to.”

Funny, you did just fine at it 50 years ago.

“”employers are burdened by a complicated system for verifying workers’ immigration status.”

It takes 10-20 minutes.......Oh the pain...the pain....!!

“”We would bolster recent efforts to secure our borders”

You will do NOTHING.

“”For the 11 million immigrants already in this country illegally, we would provide a tough but fair path forward.”

Fair to WHOM? Not to American workers who are unemployed.

And it is 20-25 million.
