The Presidency

What are Bush’s views on immigration?

This link is to manuscript straight from the White House of Bush's 2006 approach to immigration:

Bush seems to be somewhere in the middle concerning immigration, in the following article he states that "our economy depends on" foreign workers and calls on Congress to act now before the problem of illegal immigration "grows worse."

What immigration laws has he supported or vetoed?

During the beginning of his second term, Bush proposed a new illegal immigrant reform.

Going against his own party, Bush proposed to liberalize immigration.

Recently, Bush has tried to renew immigration efforts.
