An April 10 Newsmax article by Rick Pedraza falsely asserted that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi "told a crowd of illegal aliens and advocates for immigration reform that federal or local law enforcement of existing immigration laws is 'un-American.'"
As we pointed out when Newsmax columnist made the same false claim, Pelosi Pelosi called immigration raids that separate undocumented parents from their documented children -- not all immigration laws -- "un-American."
Pedraza also asserts that "Despite surveys showing that 75 percent of U.S. citizens are against providing amnesty, President Barack Obama and the Democratic-controlled House will push a system to make 12 million illegal aliens residing in the United States legal" without offering any evidence that the proposed Obama plan is, in fact, amnesty.
