Hillary Praises ‘Incredibly Brave’ Woman for Admitting She’s an Illegal

Hillary Praises 'Incredibly Brave' Woman Admitting She Is an Illegal Immigrant (RealClearPolitics)

HILLARY CLINTON: Oh Nova. Wow. That was incredibly brave. And I thank you for doing that because it’s important to put ourselves in other people’s shoes. That’s one of the big hopes I have, is that we can get back to being a country where people can understand what others are going through and have empathy for it and really try to help each other.

I am strongly in favor of the legislation that passed the Senate. It was bipartisan; that’s rare these days. It passed and unfortunately the House of Representatives has not taken it up. And I think that was a big missed opportunity for our country.

I’m a huge supporter of immigration reform and a path to citizenship and will continue to advocate for that. And the more stories so that people … can put a real face on what it means to have been brought here when you were five years old, to have spent your entire life here, to have made your best efforts here, that’s what immigration reform should be about.
