In a speech in 2009, Schumer espoused views against illegal immigration that sound strikingly similar to what President Trump has said since 2015. Speaking at an immigration policy conference at Georgetown Law, Schumer said, “Illegal immigration is wrong, and a primary goal of comprehensive immigration reform must be to dramatically curtail future illegal immigration.” Schumer also called for significant increases in infrastructure, technology and border personnel to achieve “operational control of our borders,” in addition to an expansion of the E-Verify program to disincentivize illegal immigrants coming to the U.S. for jobs.
Schumer went on to say, “When we use phrases like ‘undocumented workers,’ we convey a message to the American people that their government is not serious about combating illegal immigration, which the American people overwhelmingly oppose,” Schumer said. “If you don’t think it’s illegal, you’re not going to say it. I think it is illegal and wrong and we have to change it.” “People who enter the United States without our permission are illegal aliens, and illegal aliens should not be treated the same as people who entered the U.S. legally,” Schumer said later in the speech
Why has the democrat party gone so radically wrong so quickly?
