Immigrant Rights

The approximately one-million legal immigrants who are admitted to the United States every year have stood in line to come to our country and have been given permission to enter by our government. Lawful immigrants have all of the rights accorded to U.S. citizens under the Constitution.  

Illegal aliens, on the other hand, have committed a criminal act in entering the United States and evading capture and typically commit additional criminal acts by using false identification. They certainly have basic human rights, such as the right not to be assaulted. As violators of United States law, however, they are subject to arrest, imprisonment and deportation. They do not have a right to avoid enforcement of the law.

Illegal aliens do not have a right to live in the United States.  

The La Raza open borders network constantly refer to "immigrant's rights". By painting with a broad brush, they are trying to make it appear that illegal aliens are the same as legal immigrants, and that illegal aliens have all of the rights of United States Citizens.

Remember that when you hear the term "immigrant rights", it is a code phrase. It really means de facto amnesty for illegal aliens so that those illegal aliens in effect will become full US Citizens.
