Who should I vote for?NumbersUSA does not endorse candidates, but we do tell you who has the best positions on immigration. Simply, the more green icons that candidates have on the grid below, the more likely they will be to reduce overall immigration and foreign-worker competition (both illegal and legal).

Voters will also want to look at an incumbent's past immigration record in Congress (see the grade above the photo) and any notes about the candidates lower on this page, as well as making the usual assessments about a candidate's character and leadership abilities.
What do the symbols mean?GREEN: Supports lower immigration.
RED: Supports higher immigration.

YES and NO icons: These are the answers candidates gave us by completing our Immigration-Reduction Survey. Note that these are what candidates PROMISE to do if elected and are not based on past actions.

CIRCLES: If candidates don't fill out our survey, we rate them based on past actions and/or statements. A full green circle indicates support for our position, while a full red circle indicates opposition to our position. Incumbents have been rated strictly on their votes and sponsorships in Congress. Challengers have been rated on statements they have made in the media or their websites or actions they have taken while holding another elected office.
What is a "True Reformer"?A "True Reformer" is a candidate who PROMISES to support all or nearly all of NumbersUSA's top immigration priorities. In most instances, "True Reformers" have completed our Immigration-Reduction Survey, but there are a few incumbents who have also earned the "True Reformer" label through their actions in Congress, most notably by sponsoring all five of our "5 Great Immigration-Reduction Bills."
What if my candidate hasn't completed a survey?If your favorite candidate has not completed a survey, there are several things you can do. 1) Download a copy of our survey and hand deliver it to the candidate's campaign office or email the attachment; 2) if you don't want to download a copy of the survey, you can copy the link (http://www.numbersusa.com/content/publications/letters-endorsements/candidate-surveys.html) and send it to the candidate; or 3) call the candidate's campaign office and urge them to complete our survey.
What does a letter above a photo mean?If candidates are current or former Members of Congress, a shield with their grade is located above their photo. The grade posted for incumbents is their grade for this Congress (2009-10) only, while former Members have their career grade posted.

Oppose Amnesty

Do you OPPOSE offering the officially estimated 11 million people illegally in the U.S. long-term work permits and/or a path to citizenship (whether through a blanket amnesty or an "earned legalization" or other form)?

Attrition Through Enforcement

Should Congress fund an Attrition Through Enforcement campaign to cause illegal aliens to self-repatriate back to their home countries over time?

Mandate E-Verify

Should jobs held by illegal aliens be opened up for unemployed Americans and legal immigrants already here by requiring all businesses to use the Federal automated, rapid-response internet system (E-Verify) to screen out illegal foreign workers?

Assist Local Police

Should the federal government be required to cooperate with local officials and pick up all illegal aliens detained by local law enforcement?

Defund Sanctuary Cities

Should Congress reduce funding to state and local governments that adopt sanctuary policies and other rewards for illegal foreign workers and the companies that hire them?

Fund Entry/Exit System

Should Congress fully fund the completion of the entry/exit system at all borders and points of entry in which every person entering and leaving the U.S. is logged into a database which would notify law enforcement, businesses and others when a foreign tourist, student, worker or other fails to leave on-time? *(US-VISIT was approved by Congress in 1996 and has never been sufficiently funded and is largely incomplete.)

Border Security

Should Congress fund and provide oversight for the full implementation of border security measures already signed into law?

End Birthright Citizenship

Should Congress move the U.S. in line with most other nations and stop the policy of giving automatic citizenship at birth to children when both parents are illegal aliens?

End Chain Migration

Should Congress implement the bi-partisan, national Jordan Commission recommendation to limit family-based immigration to the nuclear family of spouse and minor children, thus eliminating the "chain migration" categories of extended family that are the key reason immigration has quadrupled since the 1960s?

End Visa Lotteries

Should Congress stop using a lottery to give away permanent greencards to 50,000 randomly chosen foreign citizens each year (an elimination suggested by the Jordan Commission)?

Limit Worker Importation

Should Congress institute safeguards that will prevent importation of foreign workers any time they would threaten the jobs or depress the wages of American workers?

Reduce Total Immigration

Until 1976, U.S. immigration tradition was an average of around 250,000 a year; since new legislation in 1990, it has averaged 1,000,000 a year. More than 38 million foreign workers and dependents now live in the U.S. At current rates, immigration will add more than 100 million additional people to the U.S. population by 2060. This government-forced rapid population expansion will require huge increases in energy, roads and other infrastructure and services. Do you favor reducing overall immigration numbers toward the traditional levels?
