I’m not sure if she’s deliberately lying or just incredibly dense.

Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) said that “comprehensive immigration reform would add billions and billions to our economy” and “would raise the wages of all workers’ at an event on Capitol Hill on Wednesday.

“We know that comprehensive immigration reform would add billions and billions to our economy, Schakowsky said. “It would raise the wages really of all workers, because right now immigrants are – undocumented immigrants – are exploited and even paid below the minimum wage.”

CNSNews.com asked, “Do you think that allowing illegal aliens to stay in the United States and putting them on a path to citizenship, would that help the unemployed in America?”

“In so many ways it would help our economy, help American, Native American workers, and be a plus for all of us. It’s just another one of those issues where if the bill were called, it would pass. We have the votes. There are enough Republicans who would join Democrats in passing comprehensive immigration reform, and then our country would be more prosperous,” Schakowsky added.
