Okay....so what's YOUR solution, Luis?
Forward border patrol units closer to the actual border.
Drones (I wasn't really kidding) and rapid response detail and hold squads.
Throw them back on the spot if they can't immediately prove they're supposed to be here. Use mobile "Judge Dredd" type judges so that anyone caught at the border does not have to be brought into the system to be processed.
Fix eVerify and put up jail time for repeat offender employers.
Cut off all law enforcement Federal assistance to sanctuary cities.
Replace family reunification policies with work-based immigration visas. English proficiency withing 24 months.
Restore the Bracero program.
Share federal authority over immigration policy enforcement as well as social services and providing benefits with the States. Allow States to implement "no job no welfare" policies for citizens and non-citizens alike.
Legalization of a significant number of people is inevitable, but a path to citizenship needs to have a much higher threshold than legalization. No one with criminal record will be legalized in any manner.
Zero tolerance crime policy. Convictions of a predetermined level of crime within the first 72 months in the US to receive an automatic sentence of deportation.
Elevate visa overstaying to a felony and anyone who overstays their visa will not get another visa ever.
I'm sure I could come up with more.
