    Zeldin's Immigration, MS-13, Trafficking Roundtable Sparks Outcry

    "I support legal immigration. I oppose illegal immigration. If you want to come to America and pursue the American dream, follow the rules."

    RIVERHEAD, NY — A roundtable discussion hosted by Rep. Lee Zeldin at Suffolk County Community College in Riverhead Monday was organized to address the nation's immigration system, how to continue to crack down on gang violence, including deadly MS-13, drug and human trafficking, and a "broken visa system," according to the congressman.

    Zeldin was joined by House Committee on Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Suffolk County Police Commissioner Geraldine Hart, other law enforcement officials, the family of Justin Llivicura, who was murdered by MS-13, Concerned Citizens of Hampton Bays, and the Long Island Farm Bureau for the discussion.

    But not everyone was pleased that the doors weren't open to those who work every day to address immigration issues. The event brought out a crowd of protestors who stood outside with signs to denounce Zeldin.
