Where does Scott Walker stand on the thorny subjects of immigration reform and a pathway to citizenship?
Well, it's increasingly difficult to tell -- especially after the Wall Street Journal today reported that, according to three people present, he told a March 13 private dinner of New Hampshire Republicans that he favored a way for undocumented immigrants to obtain citizenship.
That's at odds with a March 1 interview, where he clearly stated he no longer supports immigration reform. "My views have changed," he told Fox News' Chris Wallace. "I'm flat-out saying it.
Here's a look at how Walker's views have changed on the subject:
2006: Signed a resolution calling on Congress to pass the McCain-Kennedy comprehensive immigration-reform legislation, which opponents referred to as "amnesty."
2013: In an interview with Wausau Daily Herald's editorial board, appeared to endorse a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.
DAILY HERALD: Can you envision a world where, with the right penalties and waiting periods and meet the requirements, where those people could get citizenship?
WALKER: Sure. Yeah. I mean, I think it makes sense.
March 1, 2015: Told Fox News his views have changed on citizenship for undocumented immigrants.
WALLACE: But it's a little bit slippery here. Back when you were the Milwaukee County executive, you actually supported the Kennedy-McCain comprehensive immigration plan.

Walker Position on Immigration Becomes Increasingly Unclear
Father Kenneth Hallahan of the Black Horse Pike Ministry of the Diocese of Camden spoke of seeing parishioners separated from their children. One father was handcuffed in front of his 3-year-old son, he said.
Some of his parishioners, undocumented workers, admit to not attending services because they fear police officers stationed on the Black Horse Pike might confiscate their cars, he said.
"Our money says 'In God We Trust,' " Hallahan said in impassioned remarks. "Rejection of immigration is a rejection of that God."
Hallahan was among members of a newly formed coalition of activists calling themselves the New Jersey Alliance for Immigrant Justice who pressed the cause of immigration reform Wednesday from the steps of St. Joseph Pro-Cathedral in Camden.
The rally came as the Christie administration this week submitted an amicus brief in federal court, alongside Texas, Louisiana, and South Dakota, in an effort to stop President Obama's use of executive action to defer the deportations of millions of unlawful immigrants in certain categories.
"This is a shameful political move," said Johanna Calle, coordinator for Alliance for Immigrant Justice.
The president's action would enable millions of undocumented individuals to emerge from the legal shadows, including by acquiring driver's licenses, backers say.
Calle said 10 states currently issue driver's licenses to undocumented workers, but New Jersey - despite having the fourth-highest undocumented-immigrant population in the country, with more than 525,000 - is not one of them.
Gov. Christie's office did not respond to requests for comment.

Immigration reform rally seeks a New Jersey for all
Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum is the most vociferous advocate for a strict immigration policy that respects American workers among the crowded field of 2016 presidential hopefuls, Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform, said Thursday.
Mr. Stein, who faced off against Americans for Tax Reform President Grover Norquist at a debate sponsored by The Washington Times, said other potential Republican candidates are coming around to backing a crackdown, but Mr. Santorum has gone the furthest.
Santorum is really the only one who is drilling down in to the nuts and bolts and is looking in to the job market and how immigration is really hurting American workers, said Mr. Stein, who wants to see both curbs to illegal immigration and a lower level of legal immigration into the U.S.

This month in a speech in Iowa, Mr. Santorum said the U.S. immigration system isnt working and the country must better secure the border and create legal programs for workers with different skills.
Mr. Norquist, who backs a more generous immigration policy, said the 2016 candidates are still developing their stances and its too early to pick a champion from his point of view.
Mr. Stein and Mr. Norquist found little middle ground, even differing over how to pursue border security legislation in the newly all GOP-controlled Congress.
Mr. Norquist said that the government must make border security its first priority by possibly expanding the drone program already being used in Texas in order to pave the way for a bill expanding and revamping guest worker programs that would allow verified skilled workers to come in to the country and contribute to the economy.
He argued that verified guest worker programs will lead to less crime and more legal immigration in the long run, making border security easier to maintain.
Mr. Stein, however, said immigration enforcement must focus on the interior.
