No matter who wins, immigration lawlessness will take a Herculean effort to reform.

Hardly no matter. Under Hillary lawlessness will continue. How about a 14 day voting visa. If you're here, you can vote.

What a joke. President Hillary will be packing in the illegals...like Jerry Brown in Taxifornia. Welcoming wagon always open and handing out DemocRat registration forms. Who is kidding who here???

9) End the INSANE Green Card Lottery.

This scam was initiated by Teddy Kennedy in 1965. Citizens in most countries can go to the US Embassy to throw their name in the hat and become the lucky winner of one American Green Card.

This even includes citizens in terrorist hellhole countries like Yemen. I once talked to a guy from Ireland who won one because his buddies egged him into applying as a BAR BET!

Conversely economically productive immigrants from India and Mexico are not eligible, due to the huge numbers coming from those countries. They go to the back of a ten-year line if they wish to come legally.

It’s a pretty good list, but not close to being enough. He doesn’t really touch on mass legal immigration, which must end. The following should be a part of any decent reform;

1. End chain migration by eliminating the adult-sibling category for family based visas. Do not reallocate cut visas from this category to any other.

2. Abolish the absurd Diversity Visa Lottery. Do not reallocate cut visas from this category to any other.

3. Drastically reduce refugee/asylum visas. As President, Trump could do this all on his own.

The goal should be to arrive at annual legal immigration of no more than 300,000 each year. If, as some claim, that wouldn’t allow for enough workers, and if the resulting tight labor market doesn’t bid up wages enough to solve the problem, and if automation can’t solve the problem, then implement a limited guest worker program made up of actual guest workers. That means they can’t bring family with them, they eventually go home and have no path to stay, unless that path is counted against the annual cap of legal immigrants.

Of course if Hillary wins and/or the GOP loses the Senate, none of this would happen. It’s doubtful it would happen even with Trump, McConnell, and Ryan in charge.

Reform or not, all it’ll take for a big improvement is an administration that enforces current law.

Actually, not a bad list. But I think these might work better and a little quicker:

Biometrics for every single person entering, if you overstay a VISA we come looking for you, once caught-immediately deported with a “Never to Return” logged into the system. If you’re visiting family that has entered the country via immigration, they go with you

Deport every illegal alien and send back every refugee that has come to this country since Oct 1993...Australia isn’t even letting them hit dry land. They’re put in camps on surrounding islands.

Absolutely no benefits, of any kind, to anyone...just like New Zealand, prove that you can pay your way.

Your kid isn’t a citizen just because he/she was born here and you have to prove that you can pay the bill.

E-Verify...if illegals found working, instant deportation and business owner fined

Border wall, on both sides, with a 2 mile, foliage free buffer zone on the southern border, with shoot to kill orders for any and all security forces on said border. If the “Do Gooders” want to help, they’ll be allowed to set up field hospitals on the Mexican side and do their business, with absolutely no help from US forces or security personnel. So, if the cartels take them hostage...oh effin’ well.

America cannot be considered a law and order-society while allowing this to persist.

As long as our government allows people from other countries to slip in illegally, we will never be considered a law and order society. The government is encouraging lawlessness by ignoring the problem.

IMO, if we keep allowing them to get away with it, guess what? Those same people, once granted amnesty and become "citizens", will one day vote, or hold high office.
