Freshman GOP Rep. María Elvira Salazar got into a lively exchange over immigration with former Trump aide Stephen Miller during a meeting with a group of House Republicans on Wednesday, according to multiple Republican sources.
The back-and-forth came during the end of Miller’s presentation before the Republican Study Committee, the largest conservative caucus within the House GOP. Miller, the architect of Donald Trump’s hard-line immigration policies, spoke before the group alongside other former Trump administration immigration officials.
Sources say Salazar pushed for immigration policies that would broaden the GOP tent while challenging Miller on how Republicans can attract Hispanic and Latino voters given the ultra-conservative policies he is advocating. The gathering — which also included Tom Homan and Mark Morgan, two top Trump immigration officials — comes as Democrats are expected to soon introduce legislation to overhaul the U.S. immigration system.During her campaign for Florida’s 27th DistrictMiller responded calmly, according to sources. And then Salazar and Miller stayed afterwards to talk for roughly 30 minutes, one source added.
Miller including other Trump immigration and border security officials who were responsible for inhumane policy of separating refugee families need to be criminally charged.

Rep Salazar, face it. You're a token. It's a 'I have a Hispanic friend' kind of relationship. In short, you're being used by racists. And you're not changing the GQP. It's the party of racist, old white people and they like it that way.
Good for her!!!!
