A top pro-amnesty leader suggested that Florida Governor Jeb Bush may be better than Hillary Clinton on amnesty issues.
Gaby Pacheco, a DREAMer and amnesty advocate who has already influenced the White House on its executive amnesty programs, proclaimed that Bush was, “in some sense,” better on immigration than Hillary Clinton, who said illegal immigrant juveniles should be sent back to their countries during last summer’s border crisis.
Bush, who said that illegal immigration is an “act of love,” said this week that amnesty legislation is “so hugely important” even though the middle class is getting squeezed. His co-author Clint Bolick said that Bush believes in amnesty legislation with his heart and soul, which Pacheco said was a good thing and praised.
Pacheco is a top Bridge Project official–her organization “seeks to connect individuals from across the political spectrum for the purpose of achieving immigration reform that is sensible and workable.” In 2012, Pacheco “helped persuade President Obama to implement the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program and was the first” illegal immigrant Latina to testify before Congress.
