Immigration
There is probably no clearer example of the partisan political divide than with regard to the issue of immigration. From border states like Texas and Arizona where the problem is illegal immigration and criminal activity to other states like California and Washington who need temporary farm laborers and skilled technology workers, the immigration issue is hotly debated. Unfortunately, the radical fringe of both the left (more minority immigrants=more votes) and right (build a wall & no path to citizenship for illegals) are controlling the immigration conversation with absolutely no attention to the what is best for America. Unlike a few other issues, this issue is ripe for a compromise solution if only the majority of both the left and right would stand up and recognize there is little that separates you on this issue. Lets regain our common sense on this issue and get the radicals out of the way.

Here is the best argument for why Republicans should vote for the bipartisan border deal: Yes, it is imperfect, but it will never get better than this ... there is zero chance they will ever pass H.R. 2, the House Republicans’ excellent border security bill. So, the choice is not between this and H.R. 2; it’s a choice between this and nothing. Take the deal. Here is why that argument is wrong: The bill would actually restrict the next president’s power to secure the border.
