Jayapal criticized for saying immigrants 'needed' in America to 'pick the food we eat' and 'clean our homes'
Fox News
Democrat Rep. Pramila Jayapal said immigrants are needed in America because they, among other things, "pick the food we eat," "clean our homes," and "rebuild our communities after climate disasters."
"Trump's policies, combined with his anti-immigrant rhetoric, made us less safe, less competitive in attracting the best and the brightest, and undermined our most basic human values of compassion and kindness," Jayapal said as she argued for a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants residing in America.

"So let's all take a minute to recognize the hypocrisy of every anti-immigrant debate," she continued. "This country needs immigrants to survive. Immigrants pick the food we eat, rebuild our communities after climate disasters, help construct our infrastructure, power our small business economy, clean our homes, and look after the most precious in our families – our children and our elders."
