Rep. Beth Van Duyne to Newsmax TV: Biden Puts Illegals First

By    |   Tuesday, 09 February 2021 07:18 PM EST

Rep. Beth Van Duyne, R-Texas, says President Joe Biden's policies will hurt working families and help immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally.

"It's offering up money right now to folks who are here illegally," Van Duyne told Newsmax TV's "The Chris Salcedo Show" on Tuesday, referring to Biden's immigration policies. "It's offering the idea that they can vote if they are here illegally.

"Those are the things that long term I don't think most Americans understand. It's not their fault, because what we see is the mainstream media selling these ideas that Democrats are trying to prop up," she added.

Biden has stopped construction at the wall on the southern border, proposed a pathway to citizenship for millions of illegal immigrants, and strengthened protections for recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. He also sought to impose a 100-day moratorium on deportations.

"Small businesses, owners who have put everything that they have into these small businesses, folks who are being laid off," Van Duyne said, "they are hurting, and we are unable to help them at a time when we should because we are so worried about opening up the border.

"At the same time, [the administration is] crushing jobs."
