Rep. Steve King (R-IA) said that President Obama would not be president if it weren’t for the 1986 amnesty bill that Ronald Reagan signed into law, The Hill reports.
Said King: “It’s clear to anybody that can do any kind of statistical analysis that Barack Obama wouldn’t be President of the United States without Ronald Reagan’s 1986 amnesty act.”
“King is a leading GOP critic of efforts to pass an immigration reform bill, and has often said on the House floor that Republicans are overreacting to the 2012 election, which some Republicans saw as a sign that the GOP needs to get behind a reform bill.”
