Schwarzenegger Urges Legal, Responsible Immigration

During a recent appearance on The View, former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger urged immigrants to 'do things legal' and behave like guests, emphasizing respect for the law and giving back to communities through volunteer work. He expressed gratitude for the opportunities he received in America and likened immigrants to houseguests who should respect their host. Schwarzenegger's comments came amid heightened tensions over ICE raids and immigration protests, drawing immediate pushback from co-hosts who argued that most immigrants already act responsibly and have lower crime rates than native-born citizens. Despite the controversy, he criticized both Democrats and Republicans for failing to enact immigration reform and called for bipartisan cooperation. His remarks sparked both support and backlash, illustrating the complexity and divisiveness of the U.S. immigration debate. Schwarzenegger ultimately emphasized the responsibility of immigrants to contribute positively to the country.
