Jefferson City, Mo - Today, the Missouri Republican Party issued the following statement on the announcement by local mayor to seek care in St. Louis for unaccompanied minors in the US illegally:
“Apparently failure is an option for St. Louis area Democrat leaders. Not only has St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay willingly ignored our state Constitution, in marrying same sex couples, he is now mirroring actions taken by radical Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, with his recent announcement that Mayor Slay is welcoming illegal immigrants to St. Louis area locations where state and federal tax dollars will pay for failed federal policy,” Chairman Ed Martin said today.
“Just days after President Obama visited the Show-Me State and whined of “haters” and other child-like rants, Missouri Democrats are scrambling to be like Obama; lawless and wasteful. The self-proclaimed leaders of St. Louis County, Charlie Dooley and Steve Stenger aren’t any better if not worse. Dooley in his millions in waste and Steve Stenger in his defense of the indefensible – just ask them, they will tell you.
“With weak and subservient elected officials like Slay, Dooley and Stenger in St. Louis, Barack Obama’s lawless White House is forcing their failures on us. Americans and St. Louisans alike deserve true leadership, not the lawless actions and failed policies of Obama, Slay, Dooley and Stenger.”
