Sinema confronted by immigration activists in a bathroom

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema was confronted by immigration activists who followed the senator from the classroom where she teaches at Arizona State University to the bathroom while demanding the Arizona Democrat take action on a “pathway to citizenship.”

“We knocked on doors for you to get you elected. Just how we got you elected, we can get you out of office if you don’t support what you promised us,” one of the activists said to Sinema in the video that was recorded with a phone.

The activists first confronted Sinema at her ASU classroom, then followed her down the hall as the senator went into the bathroom and shut the door of a stall. Nevertheless, the activists continued to voice their demands from inside the bathroom, including a demand that she support President Biden’s “Build Back Better” agenda and legislation that would provide a pathway to citizenship for illegal migrants.

“We need the Build Back Better plan right now,” one activist said.

“I was brought here to the United States when I was 3 years old and in 2010 my grandparents both got deported because of S.B. 1070,” another activist said. “And I’m here because I definitely believe that we need a pathway to citizenship.”- READ MORE
