In a one-two punch at Republican rival Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton said she’d be so pro-immigrant if elected that she’d create a federal office just to help newcomers — and bashed the billionaire for his “bigotry.”
The “Office of Immigrant Affairs” will work with states to ensure that immigrants are fully integrated into American life, Clinton said Wednesday.
She announced plans for the new office while receiving an endorsement from the New York State Immigration Action Fund and used the opportunity to hit at Trump.
“ Basta !” she said of Trump.
“Enough with the prejudice, and the bluster and the bigotry and all of the appeals to fear and anxiety and anger.”
