Hakeem Jeffries Responds to Trump's 'Third World' Immigrant Ban Proposal

Immigration Policy and Border Security

• 🎯 Our view supports the notion of strong border security and acknowledges the need to fix a broken immigration system.
• 🤝 The system should be fixed in a comprehensive and bipartisan way.

Defending Immigrant Communities

• ✊ We will stand up for law-abiding immigrant families and communities who are under assault by Donald Trump.
• 🚫 Trump and the Secretary of Homeland Security are described as a disgrace.
• 🧑‍🌾 Support will be given to dreamers, farm workers, and farmers impacted by Trump's extreme policies.

America as a Nation of Immigrants

• ⚖️ The U.S. should be both a nation anchored in the rule of law and a nation of immigrants.
• ✨ The country is a gorgeous mosaic of people from all across the world, which contributes to American exceptionalism.
• 📉 Donald Trump's current immigration policies are deeply unpopular and underwater with the American people.
