Latinas For Trump Co-Founder Rips Trump Immigration Policies As 'Unacceptable And Inhumane [View all]
https://www.yahoo.com/news/latinas-trump-co-founder-rips-163742482.htmlA Republican Florida state senator who co-founded the group Latinas for Trump is condemning and distancing herself from President Donald Trump’s anti-immigration policies, calling them “unacceptable and inhumane.”
“This is not what we voted for. I have always supported Trump, through thick and thin. However, this is unacceptable and inhumane,” Sen. Ileana Garcia said in a statement Saturday.
Garcia, whose district of Miami-Dade County is overwhelmingly Hispanic or Latino and voted for Trump during the last election, said she sides with Trump’s efforts to target immigrants who are criminals, but said his targeting of those seeking lawful citizenship is unjust.
