June 27, 2011: Walker Revokes In-state Tuition For Undocumented Students Attending Univ And Colleges In Wisconsin "- On Sunday, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker (R) signed his two-year 2011-2013 budget, which included ending in-state tuition for undocumented students attending public universities and colleges. In-state tuition for undocumented students was approved two years ago by former Governor Jim Doyle (D) after the Hispanic community struggled for 10 years to pass it."...
March 1, 2015: Fox News: Chris Wallace interviews Scott Walker:
".....WALKER: And my view has changed. I'm flat out saying it. I'm -- candidates can say that. Sometimes they don't. I'm saying my --
WALLACE: So, you've changed from 2013?
WALKER: Absolutely. I look at the problems we've experienced for the last few years. I've talked to governors on the border and others out there. I've talked to people all across America.
And the concerns I have is that we need to secure the border. We ultimately need to put in place a system that works. A legal immigration system that works.
And part of doing this is put the onus on employers, getting them E-Verify and tools to do that. But I don't think you do it through amnesty.".....
March 2015: We strongly dispute this account. Governor Walker has been very clear that he does not support amnesty and believes that border security must be established and the rule of law must be followed. His position has not changed, he does not support citizenship for illegal immigrants, and this story line is false, she announced in an email to journalists Thursday afternoon.
I made it clear that for me, if somebody wants to be a citizen, they need to go back to their country of origin, get in line, no preferential treatment, Walker said. In terms of what to do beyond that, again, thats something we got to work with Congress on.

April 20, 2015: Scott Walker Lays Out Pro American Worker Stance on Immigration "During an interview with Glenn Beck, Walker became the first declared or potential 2016 GOP presidential candidate to stake out a position on immigration fully in line with that of Senate Judiciary Committee subcommittee on Immigration and the National Interest chairman Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL). He also noted that he has been working with Chairman Sessions on the issue to learn more about it.
Walker is now the only potential or declared GOP presidential candidate to discuss the negative effects of a massive increase in legal immigration on American workers:..........................."
I need to see more detail about how Walker would protect American wages short of stopping illegal immigration. The laws of supply and demand apply here
Wages?? How about our NATIONAL SECURITY, and the BURDEN ON THE AMERICAN TAXPAYER, and OUR SYSTEM OF LAWS ???
Most people that try to pass off untruths, take flack.
As of March 1st, Walker confirmed that if illegals pay a fine, they should be able to stay in the U. S.
10:20 in this video
Scott is asked if illegals pay a fine, if they can stay.
Listen to his garbled answer yourself. He says he believes a way can be found to do that.
I have been highly suspicious of the claim he changed his mind. Im glad I was.
Some folks are very vested in Walker for some reason. They are trying to blur his beliefs hoping you will believe them. Listen for yourself 10:20 in.

The unfairness of competing with slave labor was a founding principle, more persuasive than the moral aspect, behind the formation and success of the early Republican Party. Similarly linking cheap illegal immigrant labor to the decline of working class Americans has real political potential in a way not seen since the time of Reagan’s appeal to patriotic working class Democrats.
Here’s a thought. Somebody is PAYING those low wages. Put THEM in jail.
