Sacramento Sheriff Jones takes Obama to task on YouTube over immigration reform
Source: Sac Bee
Sacramento County Sheriff Scott Jones has taken to YouTube to urge President Barack Obama to secure the nation’s borders in light of the death of one of his deputies allegedly by a man who had been deported only to return to the United States.
The eight-minute video takes Congress and Obama to task for not passing immigration reform and for tying the hands of authorities trying to seal the border, but places most of the responsibility on the president.
“While I am not going to overly dramatize this plea by attributing his death to you,” Jones said. “I am going to implore you to address an issue that only you can address: immigration reform.”
He said Congress, both Republicans and Democrats, share blame for failing to enact immigration reform but only Obama is “singularly responsible for the hands-off policy that exists in Homeland Security and its subsidiaries, including customs and border protection.”
