MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN - JULY 15: Sen. Tommy Tuberville poses for a photo ahead of the start of the first day of the Republican National Convention at the Fiserv Forum on July 15, 2024 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Delegates, politicians, and the Republican faithful are in Milwaukee for the annual convention, concluding with former President Donald Trump accepting his party's presidential nomination. The RNC takes place from July 15-18.
“I mean, how can you put somebody in charge of a situation where you let 15, possibly even 20 million people come into our country?” Tuberville said. “Now some of these people are good, but most of them are garbage. They come from jails and prisons in other countries.” The unauthorized immigrant population in the United States grew to 11 million in 2022, according to new Pew Research Center“Senator Tuberville’s dehumanizing language referring to migrants as garbage encourages abuse rather than empathy and compassion,” said Heidi Altman, director of federal advocacy at the National Immigration Law Center, according to
“This kind of dehumanizing rhetoric has historically led to dangerous, violent, and hateful policies being unleashed against marginalized groups. All leaders of any political persuasion should denounce this as unacceptable in a democratic society.” If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.and agree that your clicks, interactions, and personal information may be collected, recorded, and/or stored by us and social media and other third-party partners in accordance with our
