CANTOR RELENTLESS IN PUSH FOR AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIEN YOUTH (Flashback 2013)
Breitbart ^ | 12/3/13 | MATTHEW BOYLE

House Majority Leader Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) says he is continuing to try to grant amnesty to illegal alien youths via his GOP version of the DREAM Act, known as the KIDS Act.

“We should not be holding kids liable for the acts of their parents,” Cantor said in an interview with the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

Bob Rayner, a reporter for the Times-Dispatch, wrote that Cantor described the push for the KIDS Act, something that would reportedly legalize the status of illegal aliens who are somehow determined to have been brought to America by no fault of their own, as a “one of his priorities.”

Rayner wrote that such “priorities” would, if Cantor succeeds, “be incremental improvements in the country’s broken immigration system, beginning with the Kids Act, which would create a path to citizenship for people who were brought to the United States illegally when they were children.”

Cantor has been writing the KIDS Act for months but has not introduced it since announcing that he was working on the amnesty legislation with House Judiciary Committee chairman Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-VA). Goodlatte is, like Cantor, from Virginia--a state where Cantor wields enormous political power over his GOP colleagues.

“We should not be holding kids liable for the acts of their parents,”

Well I can infer from that, then, we can (with his blessing) send these little tykes back across the border.

Their parents didn't bring them here...

Is Cantor so stupid that he cannot see that he's abetting the flood of "children" currently crossing the border?

We should not be letting children benefit from the crimes of their parents
