Nancy Pelosi uses Melania Trump's family to slam president's immigration plan
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi invoked first lady Melania Trump’s family to criticize President Trump’s immigration plan.
Pelosi said Wednesday that Trump’s merit-based immigration proposal is aimed at making “America white again.”
“I don’t know if merit counted for when his wife’s family came into the country,” Pelosi said at a Commonwealth Club of California event in San Francisco. “I don’t know. Maybe it did. God bless them if it did. But he calls that ‘chain migration,’ which he wants to get rid of.”
Trump unveiled his immigration plan earlier this month that prioritized merit-based immigration over chain migration, meaning the administration would give a higher priority to high-skilled immigrants.
