NATIONAL SECURITY
As a nation built by immigrants, whether by choice, necessity, or seeking refuge from dire circumstances, embracing our heritage as a country of immigrants is fundamental to our identity. However, it is imperative that immigration processes be conducted efficiently, fairly, and safely.
​
Over the past three years, the nation has faced unprecedented challenges at the southern border, leaving it less secure and more vulnerable to both foreign and domestic threats. It is unacceptable for such realities to persist under the watch of elected officials, and it is essential that these issues be addressed with sincerity and urgency.
To resolve this crisis, decisive action must be taken to halt and reverse the influx of illegal migration. Implementing policies such as "Remain in Mexico" as federal law and urging Mexico to deploy its military to the border are critical steps in stopping illegal migrations at their source. Collaboration with Mexico and other nations to address the root causes driving individuals to undertake perilous journeys is also necessary.
​
Furthermore, prioritizing the deportation of recently arrived illegal immigrants, particularly violent criminals who pose a threat to communities, is essential. Empowering border patrol and law enforcement agencies to enforce existing laws is paramount to restoring order and security.
​
Additionally, reforming the immigration system is essential to promoting legal immigration and assimilation into society. By making the process more efficient and favorable for those seeking to migrate legally and contribute positively to the nation, the integrity of the immigration system can be ensured while bolstering the economy.
Working together with colleagues, Darius is committed to addressing these challenges head-on and implementing solutions that uphold the values of the nation as a country of immigrants while safeguarding borders and national security.
