Poll: Majority of Hispanics Disagree with Biden, Say Calling Laken Riley’s Alleged Killer ‘Illegal’ Is Appropriate
JOHN BINDER28 Mar 2024108
An overwhelming majority of Hispanic Americans say calling the illegal alien accused of murdering 22-year-old Laken Riley an “illegal,” as President Joe Biden initially did, is appropriate, a Harvard/Harris poll finds.
During his State of the Union (SOTU) address this month, Biden was pressured by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) to address Laken Riley’s murder. Biden ultimately called the suspect accused of murdering Riley, Jose Antonio Ibarra, “an illegal.”
Afterward, Biden seemingly told MSNBC he regretted using the term “illegal.”
“Undocumented person and I shouldn’t have used ‘illegal,’ I should have — it’s undocumented, Biden said of Ibarra’s immigration status in the U.S. In response to Biden’s comment, the White House said the president “did not apologize” to Ibarra.
