Positions
Immigration & Border
The candidate supports continued legal immigration but has criticized what he describes as overly lenient policies toward unauthorized migration and the prioritization of migrants over veterans and other citizens. He has called for stronger border control measures and expressed concern about illegal immigration “draining” resources while still affirming the value of a vibrant legal immigration system.
Public Safety & Guns
Hunter Biden has argued in court that federal firearm restrictions that bar people based on past drug use violate the Second Amendment and has sought dismissal of federal gun charges on that constitutional basis. His legal filings and public defense emphasize protecting his right to possess firearms despite allegations of past drug use and challenge the application of gun-possession prohibitions to him.
