Amend Plank 238
Our federal immigration system should be reformed to serve the interest of American citizens first. Accordingly, we support the implementation of a merit-based system that ensures the total number of new immigrants should be limited to a level that facilitates assimilation. In light of the millions of illegal aliens and unlawful expansion of mass immigration into the United States, a net migration moratorium should be enacted. We support the repeal of the H1-B visa program, ending the Diversity Visa Lottery, and preventing chain migration in the interest of protecting American jobs, technology, and national security. Additionally, any person born on U.S. soil to parents who are not citizens or lawful residents of the United States shall not be granted automatic citizenship at birth, but shall be required to pursue naturalization upon reaching the age of majority in accordance with applicable law. We support additional court resources to expedite final determination of status and deportation for both violent and non-violent illegal aliens and visa overstays. We call on Congress to end the Refugee Resettlement program and enter into Third Safe Country agreements for the purpose of lowering the number of asylees coming to the United States from around the globe. Further, we call on Congress to repeal the Hart-Celler Act (Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965) to allow for immigration quotas on nations that do not share our Western values, further facilitating assimilation. Additionally we call on Congress to implement a temporary immigration moratorium until a time when President Trump's mass deportation plan is complete.
