The reason there are 11 million people here illegally is because the federal government has fallen down on its vital job of securing our borders. Number two, I am categorically opposed to amnesty. Amnesty is wrong. It's contrary to rule of law, and it's unfair to the millions of legal immigrants who waited in line and came here legally. (00:12–00:21)
