The solution would be a path to being here legally but I suspect that's untenable for rightwingers.

It could never be that easy. I mean, they'd have to admit they were WRONG.

It is probably best addressed by strictly enforcing immigration laws in red states so we can see what happens. Red states rely on undocumented workers even more than blue states.

I’m all for enforcing immigration- but there also needs to be a realistic path to citizenship.

Especially because companies are bringing them up and exploiting them knowing they can’t easily go to the authorities

if only there was something a right wing saint had done we could point to.
