Your administration has undermined every bipartisan, bicameral effort we have pursued to help our nation’s Dreamers by making hyper-partisan and radical demands. /2

Every Hispanic Heritage Month proclamation specifically included September 15 in order to celebrate the independence of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. /3

Your administration purposefully ignored these conditions and terminated Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for immigrants from several countries, including El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua. /4

#TPS has allowed immigrants from those countries to live safely and productively in the United States while their home countries suffer from instability and some of the highest rates of violence in the world. Many have lived & contributed to the United States for decades. /5Show this thread -
The hypocrisy of attending a reception that is supposed to honor their contributions and heritage after your administration has threatened their safety and uprooted their lives is glaring. /6

No other policy that your administration has pursued was more heinous than tearing children away from their parents as they fled extreme violence from Central American countries. /7

Cherishing our loved-ones and family is not just the beating-heart of the Hispanic community, it’s a hallowed value of America’s identity, and your effort to rip apart those most sacred bonds is unconscionable. /8

Your policies harming the Hispanic community evolved from your rhetoric. During your presidential campaign and as president, you demonized and dehumanized the Hispanic community and spread fear and untruths. /9

I just wish that could get it out that we are not against Hispanic Americans just illegal aliens if you are an American citizen you are one of us.

People consider immigrant & illegal as one in the same. They can't realize/compute the two separate words. Yet their meanings hugely differ from one another! This is not about race nor immigrants people... this is about ILLEGAL aliens who break our laws and destroy our economy!

That’s because the left changed language. Illegal aliens are not immigrants. I watched the forum for Arizona tonight and the first thing the illegal child of an illegal alien stated was she didn’t want to b called an illegal alien, even though she is according to our laws.
