Didn’t Peter King used to be tough on illegal immigration?
What has gotten into to him? His district has a big problem with illegals and was the site of protests against illegals.
I can only assume it’s all the big hedge fund money in NY. The 1% are going all in for amnesty.
Duncan Hunter, too.
You might be thinking of Steve King of Iowa?
Pete is an idiot. I think he just doesn’t think about it much. He said “it is something we should do” but acknowledged that the rank and file said no to Boehner. Maybe he thinks it is a moderate position now with his fight with the Tea Party.
When Karl Rove in 2006 met with 20 House Republicans to pass amnesty to get a sample, 19 of them told him no. Peter King and Steve King both said no
Peter King cosponsored the border fence bill.
Steve King has been behind the scenes trolling Rove (you will not get a cockroach across that border when I build the fence), assisting Lamar Smith and trolling Trey Gowdy most recently.
