RSSMcCain wrong to embrace immigration hawks
Carolyn Hileman - The Voice* | May 4, 2008
When I interviewed likely Republican candidate Sen. John McCain last week, I was left with the distinct impression that he is moving steadily backward from his once progressive stand on immigration. In a 15-minute telephone interview during his April 28 visit to Florida, I asked McCain whether, if elected, he would launch a new immigration reform plan providing for an earned path to legalization to many of the 12 million undocumented workers who could prove they have paid taxes and would be willing to learn English. McCain indicated he would propose that only at the end of a three-step process. ‘’I would first of all make sure that our borders are secure,'’ he said. “That’s the lesson that we got from this last campaign, that Americans want secure borders. We can do that in a relatively short period of time.'’
