Muslim Democrats ‘Horrified' by Plan to Halt Palestinian Immigration to U.S.
2023-11-11
[Breitbart] Muslim Democrats Andre Carson, Rashida Tlaib, and Ilhan Omar say they are "horrified" by GOP plans that would halt Palestinian legal immigration to the United States.

This week, Rep. Ryan Zinke (R-MT) and other House Republicans introduced legislation to ban the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from providing green cards, visas, refugee status, and parole to Palestinians.

Zinke’s legislation also would revoke visas for Palestinians in the United States, thus making them eligible for deportation.

"This legislation keeps America safe," Zinke said of the legislation. "I don’t trust the Biden Administration any more than I do the Palestinian Authority to screen who is allowed to come into the United States."

In response, Carson, Tlaib, and Omar issued a joint statement where they called Zinke’s legislation "xenophobic, punitive, and [an] unconstitutional measure."

"As the three Muslim Members of Congress, we are horrified by Rep. Ryan Zinke’s recently introduced bill to pause all visas, refugee status, and granting of asylum for individuals holding a passport issued by the Palestinian Authority indefinitely — and to revoke others," they said:

#8  The existence of Rashida Tlaid (D-Hamas) and Ilhan Omar (D-AlShabaab) stand witness that we made a mistake admitting these communities at all. Stop digging the hole deeper by closing off entry, and dig out a bit of it by expelling all those who are illegals or law breakers (including rioting).

#5  Actually, I think that, as Iran is so supportive of them, that they should go there.

House them at either Gitmo, Baker Island, Howard Island or Johnson Island?

#2  Well, other Arabs don't want them - why should USA?
Mind you, Israel is really tired of them. Maybe they can go to West Pakistan (former UK)?
