Immigration
Yes, we are saying you can't come to America! That is at the core of the immigration problem. It started back in 1921 and was primarily done to keep America White. That is when we started having quotas and to make it so that we get primarily white people, the quotas for each country was based on the number of people in America already from those countries. Very clever way to implement racism. Back then, the hate was focused on Chinese. We didn't have many Chinese in the country, so that system was very effective in keeping them out. They changed the system but there are still quotas that result in it being incredibly difficult to immigrate to America. The general limit now is 675,000 permanent immigrant visas per year. That's nothing and makes it next to impossible for someone from South of America to immigrate to America. Democrats have advocated for immigrating to America legally all along. They just realize that the number of people that want to immigrate here FAR EXCEEDS THE QUOTAS and that results in peoples' only option is illegal. Look at all of the bans that Trump put in for immigration. We even banned people that risked their lives to help our soldiers during the wars from coming here.
