What do you mean by ‘EVERYONE,’ Mr. President? EVERY category of Black voters soundly rejects your chain migration.

According to Pres. Biden in last week’s State of the Union address, “EVERYONE from labor unions to religious leaders to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce” supports his “immigration reform.” Apparently, African American voters aren’t part of his “everyone.” Polling of Black voters, for example, finds 57% opposed allowing any immigrant to bring or petition for … Continued
