No party is saying, let's fix the problems and at the same time, stop illegal immigration.

We *had* a bipartisan deal to do exactly that in 2013, sponsored by the so-called "Gang of Eight," that included Lindsey Graham, Marco Rubio, and the two AZ Senators, McCain and Flake. It passed the Senate with strong bipartisan support, but the GOP House refused to take it up.
Dems have offered, repeatedly, to revive it and work on it with the GOP. But the MAGAs won't touch it, because they *want* immigration to remain in crisis so that they can continue to blame Dems for the problem.
