Congressional Hispanic Caucus Outraged Over ICE Immigration Tweets

Via CBS News:

The Congressional Hispanic Caucus is blasting Immigration and Customs Enforcement over a series of tweets, which the Caucus says are meant to intimidate undocumented immigrants brought into the United States as children.

“It is shameful that ICE is ratcheting up fear and terror,” amongst DACA recipients, the head of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, Rep. Michelle Lujan (D-NM), said in a statement on Friday.

DACA, which stands for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, is an Obama-era policy instituted in 2012 that grants leniency to some undocumented immigrants who were brought into the country as minors if certain criteria is met.

A letter to the Acting Director of ICE Thomas Homan from the Congressional Hispanic Caucus assailed the tweets as “despicable” and called on ICE to, “use its limited resources to target violent criminals and not to harass and deport young immigrants who are productive and engaged members of society.”

The ICE tweets that Hispanic lawmakers are decrying came out Thursday afternoon and emphasize that “DACA is not a protected legal status” while noting “active DACA recipients are typically a lower level of enforcement priority.”

Another Caucus heard from. Let's see, the Congressional Black Caucus thinks we're racist, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus doesn't like ICE, what does the Congressional White Caucus have to say? What? What do you mean there isn't a Congressional White Caucus? Well that's pretty racist and bigoted! So now we have to put up with the bullshit from another f**king racist Caucass, the Congressional Hispanic Caucass? A black one wasn't enough? Looks to Me as if we need an American Patriot Caucus. But that's gonna happen as long as there are democrats around because they put ethnicity above nationalism, patriotism, and Americanism. Their not with us, their against us.

What the hell do they think ICE 's job is, to provide plenty of ice for their Margaritas! The only ones ratcheting up "fear and terror" are groups like the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and the DNC. Congressional Hispanic Cacus? Sounds like they belong in Mexico. We are a country of Americans and that's what the people in congress should be.
