l****z 发帖数: 29846 | 1 Wednesday evening, Benita Veliz became the first known illegal alien in U.S.
history to address a national political party convention. (See Los
Angeles Times,Sept. 5, 2012; see also FAIR Press Release, Sept. 5, 2012)
Although her speech was just over two minutes, it was a crystal clear
indication of President Obama's and the Democrat Party's position on
immigration.
In her speech, Ms. Veliz reiterated the amnesty lobby's argument that is
simply unfair to deport illegal aliens. "I've had to live almost my entire
life knowing I could be deported just because of the way I came here," she
told the audience, ignoring the proper channels set forth for coming to the
U.S. in federal law.

Ms. Veliz also praised the Obama Administration for granting deferred action
to illegal aliens who qualify for the DREAM Act, which permits them to stay
and work in the United States. "President Obama fought for the DREAM Act to
help people like me. And when Congress refused to pass it, he didn't give
up. Instead, he took action so that people like me can apply to stay in our
country..." she said. (See transcript and video here,Sept. 6, 2012)
Perhaps most remarkable, Ms. Veliz addressed the crowd without fear of being
placed into removal proceedings. Immigration officials also elected not to
place ten illegal aliens arrested for protesting at the Democrat Party
Convention into proceedings. (Los Angeles Times,Sept. 5, 2012) |
