Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is facing backlash on social media over a resurfaced clip that seemingly contradicts President Biden’s recent comment where he walked back calling Laken Riley’s alleged killer an "illegal."
"People who enter the United States without our permission are illegal aliens and illegal aliens should not be treated the same as people who enters the U.S. legally," Schumer said during a 2009 speech.
"Illegal immigration is wrong, plain and simple. Until the American people are convinced that we will stop future flows of illegal immigration we will make no progress on dealing with the millions of illegal immigrants who are here now," Schumer said. "When we use phrases like undocumented workers we convey a message to the American people that their government is not serious about combating illegal immigration which the American people overwhelmingly oppose. If you don’t think it’s illegal you’re not going to say it. I think it is illegal and wrong."
Schumer drew criticism over the weekend from conservatives in light of President Biden referring to the illegal immigrant who allegedly killed 22-year-old nursing student Laken Riley as an "illegal" in his State of the Union address before later walking back that term after many in his party took issue with it.
"This is Democrat senate majority leader Chuck Schumer from 2009 talking about how unacceptable illegal immigration is," Outkick.com founder Clay Travis posted on X. "Now Dems say it’s unacceptable to even use the word illegal. Things everyone said just a few years ago are now considered unacceptable."
