Hillary Clinton Urges Katrina Aid For Illegals
October 3, 2005
Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is urging the Department of Homeland Security to assure illegal immigrants that they will get their fair share of Hurricane Katrina relief aid without fear of being deported.
In a statement posted to her official Senate web site on Wednesday, Clinton said that the DHS should “issue a formal statement reassuring immigrant victims of Hurricane Rita and Katrina that they can seek help from relief agencies without fear of deportation or being turned over to immigration authorities.”
