Julián Castro and Beto O’Rourke clashed over immigration during Wednesday's DemDebate. The two Texas Democrats went after each other on whether or not coming across the border illegally should be a crime.
Julián Castro and Beto O’Rourke clashed over immigration, with the two Texas Democrats going after each other on whether or not coming across the border illegally should be a crime.
Castro’s immigration plan, which he rolled out earlier this year, would decriminalize crossing the border by repealing Section 1325 of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which was used by the George W. Bush administration to apply a criminal violation -- as opposed to a civil infraction -- to anyone entering the United States illegally.
Castro jumped on these comments, telling O’Rourke that “if you did your homework on this issue” he would understand that what he is talking about is different than what Castro is proposing.
