Americans aren’t as divided as they seem to be over how to handle the country’s broken immigration system, writes Reihan Salam
In 2013, the Senate passed a bipartisan immigration bill that would have coupled a pathway to citizenship for millions of unauthorized noncitizens with a major increase in future immigrant admissions. Republicans in the House of Representatives wanted nothing to do with the plan, which faced intense opposition from conservative voters.
It is worth underscoring that the system really is badly broken. Whether you believe we should welcome immigrants in larger or smaller numbers, on the basis of skills or family ties or humanitarian protection, there is no defending a system that is plagued by delays and uncertainty for newcomers, that encourages hundreds of thousands migrants to make illegal and potentially deadly journeys across the Southwest border, and that has left the U.S.
