Trump's Immigration Stance Sparks Panic Among Republican Lawmakers Over Repeal Consequences
Several prominent Republicans, including House Minority Leader Steve Scalise and Representative Chip Roy, are reportedly seeking Trump's pardon for their past immigration issues as part of a broader effort to secure mercy during his 2024 presidential campaign. The requests come as Trump has championed mass deportations and the largest operation in U.S history.
Several prominent Republicans, including House Minority Leader Steve Scalise and Representative Chip Roy, have reached out to Donald Trump during his 2024 campaign, seeking mercy on immigration issues, according to sources familiar with their efforts. The pleas for mercy appear to contradict the stance taken by many of their colleagues during Trump's presidency when it came to mass deportations. It remains unclear what specific concessions or policies Trump may be willing to consider in exchange for these favors. These overtures come as Trump continues to campaign on a hardline immigration platform.
