'Tone Deaf' WH Ceremony Honoring Amnesty Recipients Could Worsen Border Crisis

by TONY LEE 17 Jun 2014

In what was called a "tone deaf" ceremony that will only lure more illegal immigrants to sneak into America, the White House honored Monday ten DREAMers who received temporary amnesty under President Barack Obama's unilateral Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

All of the honored DACA recipients at the "Champions of Change" ceremony at the White House have been immigration activists, including a reporter for ThinkProgress and someone who advised Virginia's attorney general to give in-state tuition to illegal immigrants.

Rep. Candice Miller (R-MI), who is the Vice Chair of the House Homeland Security Committee and Chairman of the Subcommittee on Border and Maritime Security, accused the White House of engaging in "exactly the type of tone deaf messaging fueling the unprecedented surge of immigrant children being smuggled across our southern border" by "flaunting the success stories of ten immigrant children who entered the U.S. illegally."

“How can we expect to dispel rumors throughout Central America that children who enter America illegally will be allowed to stay while simultaneously touting the success stories of a few illegal immigrant children granted de facto amnesty by the administration?" Miller said. "The sad truth is that most of the children being smuggled across the border today, in unprecedented numbers, will not have similar success stories."
