There is nothing in the “Issues” section of Rand Paul’s official website about his stance on immigration, border control, or amnesty. Of course, he opposes the President’s XO restricting the deportation of illegals, but that seems to be driven by his opposition to executive overreach rather than an opposition to illegal immigration.
