Wednesday letters: GOP presidential candidates need immigration plan

I attended the S.C. Republican Party’s May 2 state convention, which serves as a kick-off to presidential primary season in our state. A majority of the presidential hopefuls were in attendance and spoke on how they envisioned a better future for our country.

One issue that I hope to hear candidates speak more about is immigration reform. We, as conservatives, must address this issue and provide a sensible, constructive solution that addresses the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States. I look forward to seeing and hearing more from all of our candidates as they visit the Columbia area.
