California State Senate Leader: ‘Half My Family Eligible for Deportation’ Under Trump’s Immigration Order (The Washington Free Beacon)

California State Senate Leader Kevin de León said last week that half of his family would be eligible for deportation under President Trump's executive order cracking down on illegal immigration in the United States.

De León made the remark while speaking on Senate Bill 54, which he introduced and would make all of California a sanctuary state for illegal immigrants.

"I can tell you half of my family would be eligible for deportation under the executive order," de León testified before the Senate's Public Safety Committee.
