They came here wanting to learn English and learn American culture and were grateful. People had to go through citizen tests.

Illegals do not have rights under the Constitution. That is reserved for Americans. Leftists don't seem to know that either.

Reagan signed Simpson-Mazzoli and gave amnesty to 3 million, with the promise by Democrats to protect the border and no more illegals would get in.

Since 1965, about 72 million have come, and that doesn't include chain migration and their children. This was in 2015.
