Watch: Senator Hawley’s Epic Takedown Of lib’s claims on immigration

Republican Senator Josh Hawley confronted American Immigration Council senior fellow Aaron Reichlin-Melnick at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing about the negative effects of illegal immigration on American workers. Hawley argued that allowing illegal immigrants to join the workforce suppresses wages and takes job opportunities away from American citizens.

During the heated exchange, Hawley called out Democrats for their “ideological agenda” of open borders and accused them of not caring about working people. He pointed out that Democrats want to give citizenship to the 13 million illegal immigrants who are already part of the labor force, which would further flood the job market and drive down wages.

Melnick tried to argue that allowing illegal immigration is not a problem because they are already part of the labor force. But Hawley countered that their presence in the labor force is causing downward pressure on wages for working class Americans. He also pointed out that working class wages have not improved in the past 15 years, contradicting Melnick’s claim.

In his final remark, Hawley criticized Melnick’s economic record and reminded him that the American people have rejected it. This statement can be seen as a jab at the liberal agenda and policies that have been hurting American workers for years.

This exchange took place as President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office and enforce stricter immigration policies. He has promised to deport criminal immigrants and strengthen the U.S.-Mexico border in order to protect American workers.

Despite warnings from pro-immigration activists, Trump is determined to fulfill his promise of deporting illegal immigrants and reviving economic greatness for America. His transition spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt reassured that Trump will deliver on his promise and protect American workers from the negative impact of illegal immigration.

WATCH

According to the Center for Immigration Studies, immigrant labor has a negative effect on the wages of American workers, especially those with only a high school diploma or less. This proves that Hawley’s concerns about illegal immigration are valid and need to be addressed.

Hawley’s confrontation with Melnick sheds light on the detrimental effects of illegal immigration on American workers. As Trump takes office, his promise to crackdown on illegal immigration and protect American workers is crucial for the economic prosperity of the country.

    Melnic is mentally impaired! That is why he profuces and supports a obviously retarded view on how you deal with a criminal invasion of America. Without knowing him personally I would wager that he is also a queer, that is also a mental illness.

    The 20 some million illegals who have crossed the border have not taken too many jobs from the American people. We are supporting them financially with tax money. They don’t have to work.
