Bloomberg Urges Conservatives To Accept Immigration; Repeats Call For Comprehensive Immigration Reform

“They came here, they broke the law, and, let me tell you, this country encourgaed them to come here and made sure that we didn’t stop them,” Bloomberg said. “What are you going to do going forward? You can’t deport them.” The New York mayor spoke in support of enacting a pathway to citizenship, saying it would contribute to U.S. economic growth.
Bloomberg is working on a nationwide campaign to support immigration reform.
