They defend it because they think opponents of it are just racist.

They don't actually have any loyalty to the position. It's just "fuck conservatives".

Illegal and legal immigrants from Mexico and Central America have an extremely high welfare-use rate, so they will reliably vote for the left.

I don't think it's necessarily that they like illegal immigration but that the empathize with the immigrants and see them as human beings which is why they defend them.

Here are some facts.

Welfare use varies among immigrant groups. Households headed by immigrants from Central America and Mexico (73 percent), the Caribbean (51 percent), and Africa (48 percent) have the highest overall welfare use. Those from East Asia (32 percent), Europe (26 percent), and South Asia (17 percent) have the lowest.

It's an illogical emotional argument. They don't like the dismissive and aggressive tone against poor people fleeing struggle.

That's literally it.

Tone.

Troll topic aside, liberals don't "like" illegal immigration. It's about immigration reform. Most sensible liberals don't believe in a true open border, but the current immigration process is bloated, biased, and leaves much to be desired.

The key example are dream act students. Despite the crimes of the parents, the adolescents who came along have spent more of their formative years in this country and received a public education here. They were too young to remember their "home country" and culturally they are American.

To allow them the resources to attend higher education and obtain skilled jobs means that child can be a tax-paying member of society rather than continuing to live on the fringe and not "paying back."

This doesn't just have to be given to them. There could be requirements like those entering the medical field to provide a commitment to practicing in underserved areas. Or military tours, etc.

This way we aren't squandering talent and we aren't punishing children for something outside of their control.
