REPUBLICAN presidential candidate Donald Trump has released an immigration reform plan after warning in a television interview of tough actions against illegal immigrants if elected US president next year.
IN the six-page document titled "Immigration reform that will make America great again", Trump declares, "A nation without borders is not a nation" and proposes a wall across the southern border with Mexico to stem the flow of illegal immigrants.
Before unveiling his immigration reform plan, the 69-year-old billionaire warned in an interview with NBC that if elected president he would deport all illegal immigrants from the country.
"For many years, Mexico's leaders have been taking advantage of the United States by using illegal immigration to export the crime and poverty in their own country (as well as in other Latin American countries)," at an extraordinary cost to the US taxpayer, says Trump in the document.
"Mexico must pay for the wall and, until they do, the United States will, among other things: impound all remittance payments derived from illegal wages; increase fees on all temporary visas issued to Mexican CEOs and diplomats (and if necessary cancel them)," the document states.
He also proposes ending "birth right citizenship" stipulated by the 14th Amendment of the constitution which, "remains the biggest magnet for illegal immigration", according to him.
Tripling the number of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials and toughening penalties for the "millions of people who come to the United States on temporary visas but refuse to leave" are also part of his immigration reform plan.
