The United States should reopen itself to migration, amnesties, refugee inflows, asylum seekers, and more temporary contract workers, Mexico’s ambassador to the United States said Tuesday.
The U.S. immigration system “has to be based on facts and realities,” Ambassador Martha Bárcena Coqui told a forum arranged by the National Immigration Forum (NIF). She continued: ‘The facts and realities is the need to protect the most vulnerable, the need to keep open the generosity towards refugees, the need to recognize the complementarity of labor markets and demographic profiles, the need for temporary workers in the United States.”
The United States should not view migration as a security threat, she said, adding, “If you conceptualize migration as a national security issue, if you [push for] securitization of migration, and what is even worse, if you criminalize migration, then your approach always be policing, contentious [and] reduction of migration. So what we need is really to conceptualize migration … as an economic and social and political phenomena.”

Liz Cheney probably agrees with this...
Close the borders and deport every illegal tenant.
Nooooo!
"Martha Bárcena Coqui became the first woman ambassador of Mexico to the United States on Jan. 11, 2019. She joined the Mexican Foreign Service in 1979 and has served as the consul in Barcelona (1989-90); ambassador to Denmark with non-residency accreditation to Norway and Iceland (2004-13; Ambassador to Turkey, with non-residency accreditation to Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan (2013-17); and permanent representative of Mexico to the United Nations Agencies based in Rome (2017-18)."
Yes, Madam Ambassador, it would be good for YOUR Country of "The United Mexican States", for us, "The United States of America", to restore the escape valve of free entry into our country. But that is only your request and not your right. Our recent experiences with such unrestricted cross-border incursions has not been a happy one. Perhaps you should look inward to reduce the gangs and your internal corruption so that your people would be less inclined to flee from you!
Throw her out. Now.
“Let’s restart the Mexican-American War...................”
Excellent idea. Seize Mexico; declare it a US Territory and settle these migrants there. Then start bringing up the oil off Mexico’s coast.
Just a bunch of moochers at this time.
Here in Mexico, the word on the street is for people from other nations are forming clumps at the border, so the day that Biden is sworn in, they expect to get a green light, benefits, and path to citizenship. I have in my house a couple from Argentina, and there are other Argentinians who are making the same plans.
It will be a flood of murderers, rapists and terrorists if Biden is President.
It is a “she”, and I have not heard her being a trans-sexual.
No, the better plan would be to export all Leftists TO those nations, then complete the wall. ..after that. . let's get back to our original national vision. . .to be that shining city on a high hill. Then, we can serve the world, not by charity, not by military adventurism but by being a shining EXAMPLE of freedom, hope and prosperity. . .for other nations to EMULATE. .. and not by sending their populations to us.
In other words, end immigration entirely, except in rare circumstances, Ezra Lazarus' sonnet on the Statue of Liberty, notwithstanding. Instead, it's time for the people of the world who seek freedom and prosperity to embrace the ideals of America's founding and to begin to apply them there. It takes pioneers, courage and, yes, the sacrifice of martyrs.
It is a course, by the way, that the 73 million patriots who voted for Trump and for their love of America may have to take up to renew America's covenant with God.
Sounds like there would be a lot of work down there rebuilding. Although I hate the foreign aid, it would be vastly cheaper for us to pay to rebuild everything damaged down there than to accept the refugee tidal wave. If they stay and rebuild, we don't have to pay for their housing here, medical care, niños in schools and the mega-expense of them eventually voting for Democrats.
Democrat friends (yes, I have some I haven't converted) wince at their own hipocracy when I point out that the downward wage pressure from massive immigration of the unskilled does exactly the opposite of their demands for a $15 minimum wage. With very limited immigration we might be close to $15 as the defacto minimum wage without a law requiring it.
Mass invasion.
Let’s invade Mexico and colonize it since we already have 20% of their invading force in our country.
And open the floodgates for COVID-19. Brilliant.
El Paso is in lockdown because of all of the infected people in Mexico crossing over to Texas.
Guess the census was a little off this time, or maybe something else is happening like the dead are coming back to life. Anyway, turns out there's a LOT more people here than anyone ever thought.
How do we know? They're all voting. Tens of millions of them. I know, it's unprecedented, it's impossible, but it must be true. All the Americans voted for Trump, in record numbers, but even more record numbers voted for Biden. And they all need free housing, and AFDC, and SNAP cards, and - well, you see what I mean. Some other time, amigos.
If a drunk driving illegal runs over this bitch, is it OK to laugh?
Because I will.
Come on, Gov. Abbott, deputize millions of Texans and send them to the border!
puta
How about we mass migrate into Mexico? Call it New Texas. We could fill it with all the DACA migrants.
