A Welcoming And Safe America For All:
Institute a moratorium on deportations until a thorough audit of past practices and policies is complete.
Reinstate and expand DACA and develop a humane policy for those seeking asylum.
Completely reshape and reform our immigration enforcement system, including breaking up ICE and CBP and redistributing their functions to their proper authorities.
Dismantle cruel and inhumane deportation programs and detention centers and reunite families who have been separated.
Live up to our ideals as a nation and welcome refugees and those seeking asylum, including those displaced by climate change.

In case you didn't already realize that he's abandoned all pretense of his neo-Marxist ideals and embraced corporate oligarchy.

This is precisely the position of the US Chamber of Commerce and the WSJ Editorial Board.

Bern's a fraud and a fake. His supporters deserve to have the rug pulled out from under them again, just like in '16.

ETA - Here's what Bern was saying about immigration in 2007:

quote:
"I believe we have very serious immigration problems in this country," Sanders said during a 2007 press event, with AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka behind him. "I think as you've heard today, sanctions against employers who employ illegal immigrants is virtually nonexistent. Our border is very porous. And I think at a time when the middle class is shrinking, the last thing we need is to bring over in a period of years, millions of people into this country who are prepared to lower wages for American workers,"

That's a traditional socialist position - we need to take care of our own working class, and make it difficult for employers to race to the bottom by importing cheap foreign labor to undercut wages.

New Bern says, come one, come all, and frick the poor native-born peasants that I used to champion. Just like the good little born-again capitalist shill he has become.
