Does working-class immigration drive down wages for natives? The opposite, says former Reagan official Linda Chavez. It’s not that a native worker is simply replaced and left on welfare or in hardship; more often, it creates new opportunities for that person to move up the economic ladder.

I have consistently maintained this view regarding illegal immigration from our southern border, and I extend the same principle to those seeking to enter from elsewhere: immigration is not a global entitlement. Entry into the United States is not a moral guarantee—it is a policy decision that must be made based on our national interests. Period. The United States has always been a nation of immigrants, yes—but only when immigration was tied to a clear contribution to the country’s development. We cannot continue to frame immigration as an emotional issue. It is a matter of economic limits, social cohesion, and political responsibility. Assimilation is necessary, but it is not sufficient. Even the most well-meaning immigrant draws from the same finite pool of housing, education, healthcare, and job opportunities as native-born citizens. That is not an ideological opinion—it is a reality of scarcity. Resources are not elastic. We have overcrowded schools, strained hospitals, and a housing crisis that is pricing out working-class Americans. Only a fool would advocate adding more people to a stressed system, regardless of their character or intentions, worsens these challenges. This is not about demonizing anyone. It is about prioritizing Americans—particularly the working-class, who are often the first to feel the pressure of unchecked immigration. Low-skilled workers are often the ones who are asked to absorb the costs of policies designed by elites who remain immune to their disastrous consequences. I think we need a temporary immigration moratorium, it’s not isolationist; it is pragmatic. It is not a wall against the world—it is a pause to rebuild our foundation. Before we open the door any wider, we must ensure the house is in order. We must fix our schools, address our housing shortage, restore the integrity of our immigration laws, and rebalance a labor market that is growing increasingly hostile to the working people of this country. Immigration must serve the national interest—not sentimentalism, not globalism, and certainly not guilt. Until we can guarantee that our immigration system works for the American people, we have no obligation—moral or legal—to accept others simply because they ask or because some people feel bad. This is not a rejection of compassion. It is a reaffirmation of responsibility.
