We're tired of double-talk and political games. Rep. Denham, support real reform now!
Rep. Jeff Denham, you say you support immigration reform, but you just voted to gut deferred action programs and subject DREAMers and military families to deportation. We're tired of double-talk and political games. Rep. Denham, support real reform now!
Why is this important?
It’s as if Republicans haven’t learned one thing. Last year Rep. Jeff Denham voted with his party to deport DREAMers. He kept saying he supported immigration reform and even became the first House Republican to cosponsor H.R. 15, the House immigration bill, but that was his only vote.
Last week, Denham doubled down. He voted again to gut deferred action programs for DREAMers and military families.
This so-called ENFORCE Act would do away with the programs that protect immigrants from deportation and would block President Obama from using his executive authority to fill the vacuum left by Republicans' own inaction.
House Republicans like Jeff Denham had a real chance to build on the immigration principles they introduced just a few weeks ago. It was a step in the right direction. But instead, they claim they can't move forward on reform because they don't trust the President to enforce the law. This is the same president who has deported nearly 2 million immigrants.
So instead of advancing reform for DREAMers and their loved ones, Rep. Denham and House Republicans have chosen to double-down and blame their inaction on Obama.
We're tired of the double-talk. Tell Jeff Denham he can’t have it both ways – either he supports immigration reform or he wants to deport DREAMers. Which one is it?
