According to a Pew Hispanic Center report, in 2005, 57% of illegal immigrants were from Mexico (6.570 million); 24% were from other Latin American countries, primarily from Central America (510,000 El Salvador, 430,000 Guatemala); 9% were from Asia; 6% were from Europe; and 4% were from the rest of the world.

Why do they come to America? Why not enforce the immigration laws?
so they come here to get them. The democrats have no interest in stopping them because these illegals vote Democrat.

If illegals were to vote Republican the Democrats would take a different approach in a second because they know the cost of illegals is out of hand.
