DREAMer: Pelosi, Schumer Use ‘Us as Pawns’

Dreamer: Pelosi, Schumer Use ‘Us as Pawns’ (The Washington Free Beacon)

An immigrant who was brought to the U.S. illegally as a child castigated Democrats, particularly Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.), over the weekend for "using" Dreamers like him as political "pawns."

Hilario Yanez, a recipient of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which provides legal protections to nearly 800,000 Dreamers, praised President Donald Trump's stance on illegal immigration and blasted that of congressional Democrats during an appearance on Fox News.

"Let me begin by first thanking Donald Trump for his leadership, his compassion, and also the courage to take on this issue," Yanez said. "I believe we need to have border security."
