Credibility in immigration policy can be summed up in one sentence:

“Those who should get in, get in; those who should be kept out, are kept out; and those who should not be here will be required to leave.”

- Testimony of the late Barbara Jordan, Chair, U.S. Commission Immigration Reform on Feb. 24, 1995

“I believe that any nation that wants to control its borders can do so.”

- Gen. Tommy Franks, American Forces Press Service, April 13, 2003
What Constitutes an “Invasion”?
The Founders had invasion in mind. They mentioned it four times in the Constitution, without ever defining it. Here are the citations:

Article I, Section 8, Paragraph 15: The Congress shall have the Power (to) provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

Article I, Section 9, Paragraph 2: The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.

Article I, Section 10, Paragraph 3: No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.

Article IV, Section 4, Paragraph 1: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestics Violence.
