Hypocrite Harry Reid Introduced Bill To Restrict ‘Legal’ Hispanic Immigration In ’93

Hypocrite Harry Reid, the Democrat Senate majority leader, authored a bill that not only called for tighter border security, but also to restrict legal immigration. The now-avid supporter of amnesty was once the author of the Immigration Stabilization Act.

In what was a general opt-ed in the LA Times, as well as the video above, Reid targeted “new arrivals” — which really targeting Hispanics — for placing an “unprecedented” strain and “burden” on job markets, schools, hospitals, police, social safety nets, infrastructure and natural resources.

Isn’t funny how words and phrases change meaning when you have a media to help you create an alternative reality? In the op-ed, Reid refers to “immigration reform” as a means “to reduce immigration — legal and illegal.”

Then, Democrat Majority Leader and hypocrite Harry Reid said “most politicians agree that illegal immigration should end.” Reid, himself, proposed to “double border patrols and accelerate the deportation process for criminals and illegal entrants.” But now, however, immigration reform refers to naturalization — and certain enfranchisement (given the vote) — of the very people Reid targeted in his law, op-ed and floor speech.

And let’s look at who those people are.

Because hypocrite Harry Reid chose to underscore California and Nevada in the 1990s — for anyone who remembers 1993 enough to put this into context — it is crystal clear he is talking about Hispanics. Prior to his state’s demographics undergoing a dramatic shift, Nevada was a typical western state dominated by white voters. Worth noting, just because it was dominated by white voters didn’t mean that it was dominated by Republicans. That is another magical play on words and a greater false narrative that insinuates only white Republicans oppose amnesty, and they do so because they are racist.

If you are a Hispanic, particularly a Hispanic Democrat who votes as such, then you should be an independent voter as of… now. Reid, and the Democratic Party, knew the 1994 Republican Revolution was coming, and it was being fueled by a realization among mainstream Americans that these people will say and do anything to 1) get elected, and 2) quietly implement a far left agenda while a complacent media helps them to convince the American people Republicans are racist.

By the way, regarding those who now call Republicans right-wing racists for opposing amnesty, Reid once warned of us about those who “cry racism or point toward our historic role as a nation of immigrants. Charges of racial bias are unfounded.”

While hypocrite Harry Reid spends his days now calling opponents racist and unjust, when he thought the electorate was favorable to the truth, he was of the mind that the “real injustice to future Americans would be to do nothing” about an open border and social welfare for any and all.

After all, as Reid put it, “Americans have sat freely around a bountiful dinner table. Now, the table is becoming overcrowded.”
