Politics, News & Issues > US Immigration Should America use electronic and biometric tracking systems to discourage illegal immigration?

17 of 18

I believe that the best deterrent for illegal immigration is to make it easier for immigrants, especially Mexican immigrants, to come to the United States LEGALLY.
