Holder Calls Amnesty a 'Civil Right'

Holder Calls Amnesty a 'Civil Right' | Amnesty | Fox Nation:
"During a April 24th speech to the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Attorney General Eric Holder said that creating a "pathway to earned citizenship" was a "civil right.”
"Creating a pathway to earned citizenship for the 11 million unauthorized immigrants in this country is essential. The way we treat our friends and neighbors who are undocumented – by creating a mechanism for them to earn citizenship and move out of the shadows – transcends the issue of immigration status.
This is a matter of civil and human rights. 
It is about who we are as a nation.
And it goes to the core of our treasured American principle of equal opportunity."
