House Democrats are sharpening their focus on White House immigration adviser Stephen Miller, with key lawmakers saying he should be brought before congressional committees to testify about his role in recent policy controversies.
The talk of hauling Miller before lawmakers comes days after The Washington Post reported that he played a key role in a plan first discussed last year to release undocumented immigrants into sanctuary cities represented by President Trumps Democratic critics. While the plan never came to fruition because of objections from agency officials, Trump has since embraced the idea.
With a spate of new vacancies at the Department of Homeland Security, including the departure last week of the secretary, Kirstjen Nielsen, Miller has emerged as a key target for Democrats who see him as an influential survivor in an administration that has otherwise churned through personnel.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) on Sunday cited Millers role in developing the targeted-release plan in calling on him to testify. Steve Miller, who seems to be the boss of everybody on immigration, ought to come before Congress and explain some of these policies, he said in a CNN interview.

Cruel, ignorant, stupid, AND vain! What a combination.

(15,100 posts)He's an adviser, and therefore not Senate confirmed, but he needs to answer some questions.
Such a creep!
