U.S. Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick says Sen. John McCain has changed after 33 years in Washington, D.C.
On immigration, she said of her U.S. Senate rival, McCain’s changes are especially striking.
"He told dreamers that he’ll support the Dream Act, then he voted against it," Kirkpatrick, D-Flagstaff, said in a May 8 interview with Al Sharpton on MSNBC.
The Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (Dream) Act would haveallowed undocumented children brought to the United States permanent resident status if they, among other provisions, completed two years of college or military service.
We wondered if McCain really flipped his position on the Dream Act, as Kirkpatrick claimed.
