ILLEGAL ALIENS VS. IMMIGRANTS: Words Matter When Discussing Border Politics

Season 3 Episode 168 Published 1 year ago
Description

Immigration terminology matters when discussing border politics – there's a crucial difference between illegal aliens and legal immigrants that's often deliberately blurred.

• Legal immigrants follow proper channels and processes to become citizens, like my wife who took 10 years to get her American citizenship
• Illegal entry makes someone a criminal by definition, regardless of subsequent behavior
• ICE prioritizes criminals but must enforce laws consistently for all illegal entrants
• Most money earned by illegal aliens leaves the American economy as remittances to home countries
• Celebrities complaining about deportations could instead fund legal immigration processes
• Personal experience living as an expat in the Philippines provides perspective on both sides
• The immigration system needs more processing staff and better funding, not selective enforcement
