Did Anti-immigrant Hate Group meet with President Miller at the WH?


Did an anti-immigrant hate group from the fringe “English-only” movement that for years has unsuccessfully sought to squash any bilingualism in the United States recently meet with President Stephen Miller at the White House? This press release from ProEnglish sure makes it sound like it:

ProEnglish Executive Director Stephen Guschov and ProEnglish Director of Government Relations Dan Carter visited the White House to discuss a variety of official English legislation issues with a senior legislative aide to President Donald Trump.

Bannon’s gone, Omarosa is spilling to the talk show circuit, Ivanka and Jared are hiding from Mueller, which doesn’t leave many other possibilities. Plus, the agenda included the white supremacist immigration wish list Miller is trying to usher in as he continues to derail the DREAM Act:

The White House meeting, which occurred in the East Wing, focused on Trump administration support for the English Language Unity Act, the RAISE Act, the COST Act, and also the possibility of President Trump repealing former President Clinton’s onerous Executive Order 13166 with a new Executive Order signed by the President.

That “onerous” order had agencies “develop a plan for delivering their services to people with ‘limited English proficiency.’” And Miller—who as a less follicly challenged teen dumped a childhood pal for being Latino—can’t have that. The truth is groups like ProEnglish have been colluding with white supremacists like Miller for years, except now they have routes to enact their hateful agenda.
