Days after the Obama administration set up barricades to keep World
War II veterans from accessing a memorial on the National Mall in
Washington D.C., the open borders movement was allowed to hold a concert
and rally demanding rights for illegal immigrants.
One outraged federal lawmaker, Texas Congressman Steve Stockman, summed it up best on social media, writing that; “Obama closed the National Mall to WWII vets. You can visit it tomorrow, but only if you’re in the illegal alien rally.” Stockman
referred to veterans who were not permitted to visit the National World
War II Memorial on the National Mall during the first day of the
government shutdown. Judicial Watch has filed a public records request with the Department of the Interior for information related to blocking public access to national monuments in Washington D.C.
JW is also investigating how
the illegal immigrant groups received a government permit to hold their
event when the area is supposedly closed over the shutdown. The rally
was promoted in English and Spanish as the “March for Immigrant Dignity and Respect” (“Marcha Por La Dignidad y el Respeto de Los Inmigrantes.”).
It was hosted by a number of groups including the Service Employees
International Union (SEIU), the American Federation of Labor and
Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) and a variety of other
community organizations as well as Mexican airline company Aero Mexico.
It appears that the Obama administration unscrupulously gave the
organizers of the immigrant rally special treatment. Even the mainstream
media was forced to acknowledge this with one national newspaper writing
this: “After seeing a group of veterans forced to move aside barriers
to access the World War II Memorial last week, some are upset over what
they see as the Obama administration giving preferential treatment to a
group pushing for one his biggest legislative priorities.”
