🔥 Bob Dole’s immigration message thirty years ago and Adam Hamilton’s position today share a common foundation: enforce immigration laws, respect human dignity and bring Americans together. 🇺🇸 Accepting the Republican presidential nomination, Dole affirmed America’s right to control its borders and opposed unlawful immigration. He also said a Mexican family arriving legally that morning had the same right to the American Dream as descendants of the Founding Fathers. Dole insisted that the Republican Party welcome citizens of every race and religion. To those who rejected that principle, he declared that the exits were clearly marked. He stood with the party of Lincoln, without compromise on inclusion. Hamilton’s own words reflect that balance: “Kansans expect our immigration laws to be enforced. But we also expect each person to be treated with dignity and respect.” His statement criticized both the Biden’s administration handling of the border and the disruption caused by ICE operations in southwest Kansas under Trump. He described the consequences for families, schools, businesses and agriculture, then called for lasting, bipartisan immigration reform. “Neither party has been able to solve this on their own. It’s past time Washington ended the chaos and actually worked together to solve problems for Kansas families.” That willingness to work across party lines also echoes Dole, who said that “honorable compromise is no sin” and described it as protection against absolutism and intolerance. Last night near Wichita, Trump described millions of migrants as “totally incompatible with the West,” mocked an American Muslim candidate’s name and disparaged American immigrants from Somalia as arriving with “low IQs and no money.” Marshall portrayed France’s unrest as a consequence of immigration policies and capitulation to “radical Islam,” warning that America could burn next. He offered no evidence establishing that explanation. French authorities categorically deny those sentiments. Reuters described protests over living costs and underfunded public services that descended into rioting and looting. That rhetoric encourages Americans to view entire communities with suspicion. Dole warned against dividing us into factions. Remembering World War II, he described the blood of immigrants’ sons and enslaved people’s grandsons as equally American. Shared sacrifice transcended ancestry. He asked Americans to defend that unity against the urge to divide. Dole also emphasized equal opportunity and equal protection under the Constitution. Immigrants within this country have constitutional protections, including due process and equal protection. Enforcing immigration laws does not erase those safeguards. A vote for Adam Hamilton is a vote for the ideals and vision Senator Dole shared with the nation: lawful immigration, human dignity, equal opportunity and a country united across our differences. A vote for Roger Marshall rewards the politics of division that Dole warned against. Dole firmly told those holding that exclusionary outlook to leave the party of Lincoln that night.
