US Constitution, Article 4, Section 4:
“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion;”
James Madison:
“When we are considering the advantages that may result from an easy mode of naturalization, we ought also to consider the cautions necessary to guard against abuses … aliens might acquire the right of citizenship, and return to the country from which they came, and evade the laws intended to encourage the commerce and industry of the real citizens and inhabitants of America, enjoying at the same time all the advantages of citizens…”
We affirm the integrity of the international borders of the United States and the Constitutional authority and duty of both the states and the federal government to secure their borders against foreign invasion.
We call for the use of U.S. troops to protect the states against invasion.
All states can and must exercise their sovereign state rights and duties to protect their citizens’ property and lives by securing their borders by any means necessary.
We support the forced return of all illegal aliens found in this nation by either state or federal authorities to their home nation or the nation through which they illegally entered this country. As a penalty for entering illegally, such persons should be disqualified from citizenship.
We call for the return of a sponsorship system of immigration whereby citizens can sponsor persons of good character, based on limits set by Congress, as long as the citizen acts as a guarantor of the immigrant’s health, welfare, and good conduct and is liable for any infractions until the immigrant qualifies for citizenship.
We oppose the abuse of the H-1B and L-1 visa provisions of the immigration act which are displacing American workers with foreign.
We favor a moratorium on immigration to the United States, except in extreme hardship cases or in other individual special circumstances, until the availability of all federal subsidies and assistance be discontinued and proper security procedures have been instituted to protect against terrorist infiltration.
The Constitution Party demands that the federal government restore immigration policies based on the practice that potential immigrants will be disqualified from admission to the U.S. if, on the grounds of health, criminality, morals or financial dependence, they would impose an improper burden on the United States, any state or any citizen of the United States.
We oppose the provision of welfare subsidies and other taxpayer-supported benefits to illegal aliens.
We reject the practice of bestowing U.S. citizenship on children born to illegal alien parents while in this country.
No government entity shall give sanctuary to illegal aliens, nor shall any Non-Government Organization receive taxpayer funding to support illegal immigration.
We oppose any extension of amnesty to illegal aliens.
We support English as the official language for all governmental business by the United States.
- We oppose bilingual ballots.
- We insist that those who wish to take part in the electoral process and governance of this nation be required to read and comprehend basic English as a precondition of citizenship.
