OPINION:
In “D.C. area leaders say sanctuary policies stay” (Web, March 6) I was surprised to read the quote by Jolene Ivey, chair of the Prince George’s County Council. When she says, “It sounds like coming up with something about undocumented citizens committing crimes is just something to start a fight,” Ivey inadvertently discloses the Democratic Party’s real agenda.
Referring to illegal aliens as “undocumented citizens” is an attempt to redefine the issue and pave the way for granting citizenship to every one of the criminals who have illegally entered our country.
The lunacy of this terminology becomes clear if you try it elsewhere. For example, why don’t we start calling house burglars “undocumented homeowners,” car thieves “undocumented car owners” and bank robbers “undocumented account holders”? The Democrats must be held to account for their insane policies.
