Democrats reversing course on illegal immigration over the past three decades

Описание: In response to President Donald Trump's mass deportation campaign, Democrats at both the state and federal levels have launched coordinated plans to block those efforts.
A stark contrast to the action taken during previous Democratic administrations, including when former President Bill Clinton and President Barack Obama were in office. Both of whom had strong stances on immigration.
Our administration has moved aggressively to secure our borders more by hiring a record number of new border guards. By deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before," Clinton said during 1995's State of the Union address. "Undocumented workers broke our immigration laws and I believe they must be held accountable. Especially those who may be dangerous," said Obama in 2014.
The numbers back up those positions. According to the CATO Institute, following President George W. Bush's over two million removals, and Clinton's 850,000, Obama set a record with over three million. Trump, during his first term, had more than 930,000, but the number then dropped during the Biden administration to just over 540,000.
The first administration in history to completely abandon their federal responsibilities to secure the border and enforce the immigration laws of this country," Charles Marino, a former DHS Senior Advisor and CEO of Sentinel told The National News Desk.
Pointing to those numbers, Marino said he believes this Democratic reversal, in part, started five years ago.
We have seen now an abandonment by the party at large where they do not want to see these laws enforced," Marino said.
