Rand Paul backs citizenship pathway amid GOP immigration shift
Rand Paul, a Tea Party favorite and potential 2016 candidate, urged a pathway to citizenship for some illegal immigrants in a March speech to the U S Chamber of Commerce. He rejected the notion that undocumented newcomers are parasites and urged a land of legal work and assimilation, signaling a nuanced Republican pivot on immigration. California Republicans face pressure as Latino voters tilt Democratic, with the state moving away from a swing posture after Pete Wilson’s anti illegal immigration campaign and subsequent citizen–voter shifts.
