Immigration Interests Ignore ‘System’

Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-WI) published an article in the Washington Examiner offering his viewpoint on the commonly heard claim that “America’s Immigration system is broken.” The reality, he maintains, is that powerful vested interests simply ignore the system for their benefit. The following is an excerpt from his article:

“It’s a tired talking point because the problem is not our immigration ‘system.’ It is that those entrusted to enforce our immigration laws seem hellbent on actively subverting them. And both parties bear some of the blame.

“In some ways, it has become a Washington tradition for Democratic and Republican administrations to undermine the letter and spirit of America’s immigration law. Many Republicans have done so because they see mass illegal immigration as a steady supply of cheap foreign labor. They are joined by many Democrats, who view the endless tidal wave of immigrants as a reliable source of future votes and political power for their party.

“But the Biden administration is by far the most notorious offender in this national self-sabotage.

“Since he was inaugurated in 2021, President Joe Biden and his chief enabler, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, have systematically ignored existing statutes and abused their authority to construct a parallel immigration system outside the constraints of the law.”
