White House compares migrants to space aliens

A migrant advocacy organization that helps refugees throughout the world says the White House website is coarsely poking fun at migrants by comparing them to space aliens.

In what looks like the opening credits of a science-fiction movie, the White House's new "Aliens" website says, "They walk among us."

Hilary Chester, vice president of international and domestic programs for Jesuit Refugee Service/USA, appeared on Border Report Live on Tuesday. She told South Texas correspondent Sandra Sanchez and host Rudy Mireles that the references are dehumanizing. She says it's clearly meant to raise a laugh at the expense of migrants who suffer so much in their efforts to get to the United States.
