Immigration

Any government must consider the security and well-being of its citizens as its highest priority. In our country today, unchecked and unregulated immigration threatens to overwhelm state and local-level resources and poses a threat to our national security.

We must act now to maintain an appropriate level of security along our borders. The border fence that is currently under construction along the U.S.-Mexican border must be completed in a timely manner, but this band-aid solution will only provide limited short-term relief.

Immigration policy must be reassessed and innovative yet practical solutions are in short supply. If elected, Michael B. Younan will work with other members of Congress and the myriad agencies that ensure our national security to implement new strategies to reduce visa processing times and bolster legal avenues of immigration, in an effort to curb illegal border crossings and improve our nation’s security.
