Sarah Palin had harsh words for the GOP establishment who voted for immigration reform, saying they “disrespect Hispanics” by passing the bill. “Great job, GOP establishment,” began the statement Palin posted on Facebook on Friday. “You’ve just abandoned the Reagan Democrats with this amnesty bill.” The Senate passed a bipartisan immigration reform bill on Thursday 68-32. Fourteen Republicans voted for the legislation, which has been characterized as a way for the GOP to increase its appeal among a traditionally Democratic base: Hispanics.
Palin disagreed with this perspective, writing: “It was the loss of working class voters in swing states that cost us the 2012 election, not the Hispanic vote.” “Legal immigrants respect the rule of law,” Palin continued. “You disrespect Hispanics with your assumption that they desire ignoring the rule of law.”
Palin has been outspokenly critical of immigration reform in recent days, criticizing Republicans who support the bill, including Marco Rubio and Kelly Ayotte. as well as the content of the legislation. Her statement on the Corker-Hoeven border security amendment, posted to Facebook on Monday, is titled “Holes in the Border As Big As the Holes in Their Amnesty Bill.”
