More Senator Dick Durbin Retweeted Donald J. Trump
Give me a break. You killed DACA and have now rejected six bipartisan deals to protect Dreamers. I’ve been fighting for Dreamers for 17 years and will never abandon them. We could pass the Dream Act today if you simply called on the Republicans who control Congress to support it.
Let’s be honest, President Trump’s plan is to ransom these young Dreamers in exchange for his entire anti-immigrant agenda.
Reducing legal immigration by more than 40 percent by barring Americans from sponsoring their parents, siblings and children as immigrants.
Fast-tracking deportations of Central American women and children fleeing gang and sexual violence.
Dramatically cutting the number of immigrants from African countries that he hatefully disparaged.
Yesterday the Senate rejected the President’s immigration plan by a bipartisan supermajority.
Democrats and a handful of courageous Republicans tried to free the Dreamers by paying that $25 billion ransom for Trump’s infamous border wall. But he rejected that offer.
The American people can now see the President’s agenda for what it is, and it’s not protecting Dreamers.
Trump got called out by Durbin! :O and he is right in many points....
