[Issue] Immigration [Question] What are your views concerning immigration? [Position] 
ANSWER OPTION Immigration is, above all, about national security. Because Congress has failed to face the reality of our immigration challenges, we have a system that supports criminals, weakens our borders, and penalizes innocent families instead of those who wish to harm America. A sustainable immigration system requires an earned path to citizenship for law-abiding, productive migrants. I also support a requirement that migrant workers be paid prevailing wages and benefits, thereby decreasing demand for poorly-paid undocumented workers and protecting human dignity. I also support the DREAM Act. CANDIDATE'S POSITION Graves said the following in response to an MPR News inquiry: "Smart immigration enforcement can improve our country, but only if it is coupled with immigration policy that takes into account human dignity, the opportunity of the American dream, national security, and the need for a growing labor force."
