-- Indicates Senators who co-sponsored the SAVE Act

These Senators earned a NumbersUSA Immigration Reduction Grade of “A,” based on immigration votes on the floor and in committees of the U.S. Senate, and on co-sponsorship of legislation.

(NumbersUSA's grading is strictly non-partisan.)

In terms of immigration actions, these Senators...

restore respect for the rule of law and reduce illegal immigration

help American workers avoid cuts in their wages

improve the employment possibilities of the most vulnerable Americans, especially the Hispanic and Black underclasses

protect environmental resources from federally-forced population growth

spare communities from worsening congestion and quality of life

reduce the growth in U.S. energy demand

NumbersUSA's grades reflect every recorded action for every Senator which would affect overall immigration numbers. NumbersUSA positively grades all actions that would reduce both illegal and authorized immigration. The grades cover actions taken in both the current Congress and the previous Congress (2005-2008).
