Illegal migrants embody the best of our nation, says the leader of the Democrats in the House of Representatives, Rep. Nancy Pelosi. The flattery for migrants came December 21 as Pelosi urged the House Committee on Rules to include an amnesty for 3.25 million dreamer illegals in the two- week budget resolution. According to Politico:
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi urged the committee to add an amendment to the short-term spending bill that would attach the bipartisan DREAM Act, H.R. 3440 (115). Pelosi said Congress had a duty and obligation to protect undocumented immigrants
They embody the best of our nation: patriotism, hard work, perseverance, Pelosi said of DREAMers. She added that Congress shouldnt leave them to celebrate the holidays in fear, watching their DACA protection expire.
Pelosis for migrants flattery failed to persuade the GOP-majority panel, which rejected her proposal.
