White House spokeswoman Lauren Bis told Fox News Digital, "Democrats show time and time again with their extremist, anti-American policies that they care more about illegal aliens than U.S. citizens."
Democratic strategist Julian Epstein also criticized Jeffries’ statement, arguing that the Democratic Party appears to already be reverting to its old ways rather than fulfilling its promises of affordability.
"Democrats are falling back into the extremist open border trap. I'm still yet to hear concrete plans on making housing, energy, and healthcare more affordable. But the incoming speaker seems to have very specific plans on how to provide more welfare for illegal immigrants. No one wants to see violent deportations, but 80% of voters opposed the Biden immigration fiasco and nearly that many oppose amnesty," he wrote. "The fact that Jeffries has specific ideas about monetary handouts for illegals without any specific ideas about how to alleviate housing and energy costs is a sign of priorities out of whack."
