...should there be a moratorium on ALL immigration into the United States?

..only a temporary measure of 2 to 3 years to allow our elected officials to either enforce existing laws or rework the system in whatever manner they can agree to. Emergency visitor status would still be given to refugees in such a plan.

I think there should be. Once the border is secure, then LEGAL immigration can continue.

I don't see a reason why we need to. I think the answer depends more on whether we are keeping the 12 million-plus illegals that are here. But the legal immigrant numbers don't even compare to the illegals. I don't see any reason why they should be kept out because of the illegal problem, or at least the ones who are near the front of the line.

Well it's not all immigrants that are being asked to leave my grandmother is a legal immigrant and she can stay, because before she was legal she was made to learn english before even entering the united states. And my ancestors did as well before they entered they were made to learn english an american culture, I think it should apply to every immigrant entering the united states

I also believe our borders should be secured, the illegals deported and then we can have as many legal immigrants as this country will allow!

No.
If anything, as progress is made in reducing illegal immigration, and the illegal alien population within our borders, we whould allow /more/ legal immigration.

Yeah, that sounds GREAT.
We created a situation in Iraq that has over 4 million people fleeing the country as refugees, so we shouldn't absorb any of them into our country?
I'm gonna have to say no. And while we're at it, we need to let a lot more Iraqis in the US if we're gonna be destroying their country.
If it's us helping them or them fleeing to hostile countries and accepting help from terrorist organizations...uh...shouldn't WE be the ones helping?
