Senate Resolution To Honor Cesar Chavez Dies After GOP Tries To Add Border Security Language

[RandallFan]

Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) tried Monday evening to get unanimous consent for a resolution honoring the co-founder of what is now the United Farm Workers labor union. But Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) promptly blocked the request, asking to add language to the symbolic measure stressing that Chavez had advocated for tougher border security and for enforcing immigration laws to reduce the “deleterious” effects of undocumented workers on those who are legally here.

Chavez was against illegal immigration, but you never hear much about that.

He should offer a resolution honoring underage Hispanic prostitutes.I bet they are in favor of more liberal immigration polices,or would claim to be for the right price.
