Harris fumed at Americans for saying ‘Merry Christmas’ before illegal migrants got protections in 2017
Corey Comperatore's family speaks after fallen firefighter impersonated onlineThen-Sen. Kamala Harris warned Americans not to say “Merry Christmas ” until there was permanent status for some illegal immigrants — amid a Trump-era battle over protections for some illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children.
Harris made the remarks in December 2017 at a press conference after then-President Trump had announced the end of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which shielded some illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as minors from deportation. Harris said it was “morally wrong” to take away the existing protections for those protected by the Obama-era executive order.
Harris, both as a presidential candidate and as vice president, would call for a pathway to citizenship for a broader population of illegal immigrants, including those who came to the U.S. as children as well as farm workers, Temporary Protected Status recipients and others.
