To the editor:

What I don’t understand is why The Times apparently feels that the rights of 11 million illegal immigrants trump (pun intended) the rights of law-abiding US citizens?

At the end of your article, you state that the Mexican government is quietly “offering support for Mexicans who are eligible to become U.S. citizens and helping them register to vote.” You don’t consider this a foreign government tampering with our electoral process?
