Immigration
During his time in the Senate, Reed has supported legislation to help reduce the flow of illegal immigration across our borders, deter employers from hiring those who come here illegally, and provide a path to legalization that helps long-time undocumented workers in this country without penalizing those who have come here legally. People wishing to become American citizens must play by the rules, hold a steady job, pay fines, and learn to speak English. This realistic and comprehensive approach will secure our borders and allow families who have been in the United States for years, who obey the law, and who work hard, to come out of the shadows and have a chance to get on the path to citizenship.
