Hillary Clinton 2003: I’m ‘Adamantly Against Illegal Immigrants’

On Tuesday in Las Vegas, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said if elected, she would “fight for comprehensive immigration reform and a path to citizenship.”

However, in a February 2003 interview on WABC Radio’s “John Gambling Show,” which is featured in a new video from the Republican National Committee, then-Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) said, “I am, you know, adamantly against illegal immigrants.”

“People have to stop employing illegal immigrants. I mean, come up to Westchester, go to Suffolk and Nassau counties, stand on the street corners in Brooklyn or the Bronx, you’re going to see loads of people waiting to get picked up to go do yard work and construction work and domestic work.”
