Immigration Policy Debate with Glenn Grothman, Governor Walz, Governor Pritzker, and Governor Hochul

Published | Video Starts at 01:10

So we're very generous about allowing people in this country. I should have said 850,000 new people sworn in. In any event, really, it's not impossible to get here legally. Nevertheless, We have a lot of people every year overstaying visas or still sneaking across the border. And the question I'm going to ask you guys and Galaxy is do you believe we should have immigrations in immigration laws in this country? We'll start, I guess we'll write down the line. (01:10–01:15)
