The answer is simple...follow the law.

1. DEPORT EVERY ILLEGAL captured.
2. Build a wall and control the border.
3. Stop ALL taxpayer-funded benefits to ILLEGALS.
4. Heavy fines to all companies who hire ILLEGALS.
5. No one allowed to apply for citizenship as an ILLEGAL living ILLEGALLY inside America.

No new “immigration reform” is required.
ILLEGALS will begin self-deporting when incentives removed.
Delete law that provides American citizenship to babies born in America to ILLEGALS.

It is really easy to monotonously reel your list off thousands of times, but it is not going to happen regardless of who is in the White House or running Congress. I'm not saying it shouldn't happen, but it is not going to happen, especially, the deportation issue.

The republicans depend on money from those who want to employ them. So here is what you can do: people who support your issue need to make up for the shortfall in donations from people who will stop supporting the republicans when they start deporting all illegals. It is all about donations for campaigns. If you are willing to devote your time and resources to make this happen, then I am with you. Otherwise, it's a fantasy list and will not happen.

It really is easy to spout off lists, but the reality is much more sobering.

The fact is the people and voters who support current policy are much more vocal and activist with time and money than the voters who support what you wish. Until your side becomes more vocal and much more activist, nothing will change. Until your side can primary scores and scores of republican congressmen and win, nothing will change (one here and one there is meaningless). Until the politicians understand that the only way they can stay in Congress is by supporting what you want, then nothing is going to change. From the evidence I have seen, the same ones get returned to office over and over again, so nothing changes.

It is appealing to believe that our elected politicians will vote to do the right thing regardless of circumstances, but that era has passed.
