Pelosi: If Asylum-Seekers Illegally Cross Border into US, ‘That’s Okay Too’

    By Patrick Goodenough | January 31, 2019 | 4:30 AM EST

    (CNSNews.com) – Foreign nationals who enter the United States – even crossing the border unlawfully between ports of entry – have the right to seek asylum, “under international law and any sense of decency,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said on Wednesday.

    Addressing leaders in Christian higher education on Capitol Hill, Pelosi said the U.S. is doing the “minimum” when it comes to helping people seeking refugee status and claiming a credible fear of persecution in their countries of origin.

    When foreign nationals seek refugee status claiming a well-founded fear of persecution, “it is an obligation of our country to be responsive to that,” she told the annual presidents conference of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU). “Other countries are, and we do a minimum. And it’s just not right.”
