Steve King to Illegal Immigrant Protester: 'I'm Really Sorry That You Come from a Lawless Country'

CNN’s Ashley Killough reports about a dramatic exchange between anti-amnesty Rep. Steve King and an illegal immigrant who confronted him at a fundraiser. 

Erika Andiola, a DREAM activist, showed her DACA papers to King and asked him if he wanted to rip them up – since he voted against the program before heading back to Iowa.

Andiola explained that she was brought to America by her mother who was denied legal access to the United States.

Anidola did her best to create a scene but King told reporters that he refused to walk away from the uncomfortable conversation.
