It’s amazing what happens when word gets out that the United States is enforcing its existing immigration laws. People normally act to improve their lives, and if America is no longer giving away decent employment to foreign job thieves, then the moochers stop coming.

To that point, a recent news story reported the illegal Haitian flow to the border fell by 97 percent.

Fox News legal talker Judge Andrew Napolitano noted the change in policy recently, remarking, “It shouldn’t be newsworthy that the government is enforcing the law, but it is newsworthy because this government is so profoundly different from the previous government.”

Napolitano further observed, “We have given candidly, not just Barack Obama, but all presidents too much discretion. Congress’ job is to write the law; their job is to enforce the law. If they don’t like enforcing the law they should get a new job. There was a whole swath of immigration laws that Barack Obama chose not to enforce.”

In government, people determine policy, and President Trump’s selection of Jeff Sessions to be the nation’s top law enforcement officer sent a clear message. As the Senate’s top champion of immigration enforcement, Sessions was probably the strongest possible choice for law and borders.

Judge Napolitano concluded that news about a change in enforcement causes different behavior: “That is probably the best thing that Donald Trump has done. It doesn’t cost the government a nickel; it doesn’t cause blood, sweat or tears; it doesn’t disrupt families; it just makes people from outside the United States say, ‘You know what — it’s not the same there anymore. I’m not going to go. I’m not going to try and get in.’ It actually saves us money when he changes the tone.”
