Sessions: Americans ‘Have Every Right’ to Demand a Lawful Immigration System

DOBBS: “Joining us tonight, it is Senator Jeff Sessions. He is a member of several key committees, including budget, armed services and the judiciary. Senator, great to have you with us. As we are watching what is happening in Europe, as we watch the EU being merkelized, if you will — for some reason, the chancellor has just [indecipherable] the doors of Europe open. It wasn’t necessarily her choice to make, but she made it. And we’re watching, again, another surge of illegal immigrants across our border with Mexico. The president talking about as many as 300,000 Syrian refugees. What in the world? I mean, we listen to Donald Trump, to Ted Cruz, but we haven’t heard a clear plan. Your judgment about how important these issues are in this country, in this campaign?”
SESSIONS: “Lou, it’s very important. And to have an extremely liberal country like Sweden take this kind of strong step is an indication of when people are involved and have their voices heard policies can change. So, I believe this country has got to understand, we cannot be the nation that accepts everybody from any war-torn area of the world. It just cannot be. And we need to try to help and help these refugees at their homeland, are close to home, and try to help them get back home as soon as possible. But American people want a lawful system of immigration. They want one that serves their interest, that protects their jobs, their families, their safety, their hospitals, their schools and they have every right to ask for that. And they need to know where each one of the candidates are. And I hope in these debates that the candidates will be asked — they need to be asked how they stand on it.”
