I've introduced legislation to say, "For right now, let's stop it," from about 34 countries.

We are borrowing $40,000 per second.

I'm not opposed to letting people work and labor in our country, but we shouldn't provide an easy route to citizenship. We're the only country I know of where a person can come in illegally and that baby becomes a citizen and I think that should stop also.

The maximum penalty for treason is death. But the Constitution specifies the process necessary to convict.
