President Barack Obama’s nominee to replace Eric Holder as Attorney General of the United States, Loretta Lynch, said on Wednesday during a Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearing that she thinks illegal aliens have the same right to work in America as American citizens do.
“Senator, I believe the right and the obligation to work is one that is shared by everyone in this country, regardless of how they came here,” Lynch said when asked by Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) who has a greater right to work: Illegal aliens, or lawful immigrants and American citizens?
“Certainly, if someone is here—regardless of status—I would prefer that they be participating in the workplace than not participating in the workplace,” Lynch said.
She also said she doesn’t believe that Obama’s executive action on immigration is an “amnesty.”

Of course she does. She will be worse than Holder. The next 2 years will be a horrific ride.
disqualify her. She cannot uphold the current laws with her opinion set.
Why isn’t this immediate disqualification as soon as she utters the words? I mean right f’in now?
In a real job interview, it would be long over and her resume put in the cylindrical file. This is a soviet style mock job interview. They’ll grill her, rake her over the coals, point out all her myriad of flaws... then confirm her.
No, Herr Lynch, we as a citizenry when confronted with lawbreakers who flaunt our laws, demonstrate in our cities, choke our schools and hospitals, murder our citizens, infest our entitlement system et al have the right to incarcerate them and make them work off their debt to society.
woman....
confirmed!
They missed a sweet opportunity of asking her “how many countries permit people there unlawfully to work?”
The answer is that the only countries that permit it are failed states, with little or no government.
You are very right. I was shocked when she said it, but I should not be with today’s Rats.
Illegal aliens have the same rights to work here as I do in Guatemala or Mexico.
Your “preferences” Tang woman, are not the same thing as a RIGHT. Get her out of there.
Black unemployment rate 10.4%.
All Americans, especially blacks who illegals steal jobs from, should be outraged.
Many/most blacks prefer not working.. instead prefer gov’t benefits..
or affirmative action jobs.. that they can goldbrick on..
let the illegals work..
Then I realized that it said Lynch not Lynn.
In the REAL WORLD her comment would’ve precluded her from confirmation. But, we’re in a pansy-a** estrogen-driven ‘pigment protection’ gutless disillusioned state.
Somebody needs to tell the dumb b**ch not in America they don’t. We have laws in this country, ho!
Another WRONG answer.
It is the JOB of the chief law enforcement officer of the United States to make sure illegal immigrants are not only NOT "participating in the workplace", but that they are NOT even HERE in the first place.
Wow. Just wow.
Folks born of African descent and whose family ancestors suffered as slaves here might take exception to her comments.
Bizarro World or what?
How many Republicans will vote to confirm her?
