Not sure who your source is, but here’s mine: http://www.ontheissues.org/Rick_Santorum.htm

Santorum’s positions on immigration—

We need immigration; but we need respect of the law. (Jan 2012)
Welcome legal immigrants as part of made-in-America plan. (Nov 2011)
No in-state tuition for illegal immigrants. (Sep 2011)
Finish the border fence; make English the official language. (Sep 2011)
No tricks like 1986; secure the border first. (Sep 2011)
No promises & no government benefits to immigrants. (Sep 2011)
No benefits for illegal immigrants. (Jun 2011)
Voted YES on building a fence along the Mexican border. (Sep 2006)
Voted NO on establishing a Guest Worker program. (May 2006)
Voted NO on allowing illegal aliens to participate in Social Security. (May 2006)
