White House senior counselor Stephen Miller, a chief advocate of President Trump’s effort to end illegal immigration, is increasingly coming under attack by critics of the zero-tolerance policy at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Just this week, a media outlet published his White House mobile phone number in a bid to have people harass him.
And the New York Post’s White House correspondent Nikki Schwab reported that he was heckled while dining at a Mexican restaurant in Washington.
Today the critics plan to take their campaign to another level, holding a press conference to slam “Miller’s Role†in the immigration debate. The email to reporters said, “PRESS CALL: Amid Child Separation Crisis and After House Votes, Rep. Jayapal, Experts, and Advocates Discuss the Troubling, Central Role of White House Aide Stephen Miller.â€
Joining will be a representative of the Southern Poverty Law Center, Washington State Rep. Pramila Jayapal, and others.
They plan to discuss Miller’s “background,†which they claim includes “ties†to anti-immigrant groups.
