Kushner Tells GOP to Unite Behind Immigration Plan

September 11, 2019 at 3:46 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

“Senior White House adviser Jared Kushner told Senate Republicans Wednesday that the party should unite behind a 600-page immigration plan he crafted ahead of the 2020 election so the party can provide a positive vision for immigration reform,” The Hill reports.

“Kushner’s main message to Senate Republicans was it would be smart for the party to unify behind a plan to counter Democratic attacks that Republicans don’t have any interest in fixing the nation’s broken immigration system.”
