From The President’s Weekly Radio Address:
On Monday, I’ll visit Irvine, California, to discuss immigration reform with the local community. Immigration is an emotional issue. And it’s sparked passionate debate. When we discuss immigration, we’re talking about the integrity of our borders, the enforcement of our laws, and the character of our Nation.
Here’s what I believe: America does not have to choose between being a welcoming society and being a lawful society. We can be both at the same time. In the coming weeks, I’ll press Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform that secures our border, enforces our laws, meets the needs of our economy, and upholds our highest ideals.
We must also ensure that all immigrants assimilate into our society and learn our customs, our values, and our language. America is a land of immigrants and a Nation of laws. And we must stay true to both parts of this great heritage.
Emphasis mine. Let’s hope it is Congress’s as well.
