Illegal immigrant students at Georgetown University are demanding the keynote speaker for this year’s School of Foreign Service (SFS) commencement ceremony be disinvited because he threatens their safe space. In other words, he might actually enforce the law, which they have been guilty of violating.
Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson is scheduled to speak at Georgetown on Saturday, May 21st, to graduates of the school’s foreign service program. On May 9th, a group of 30 students and members of UndocuHoyas, an illegal immigrant advocacy group, delivered a letter to the University deans asking that they rescind Johnson’s invitation. The students said they believed inviting Johnson “is a step backward from Georgetown’s leadership on undocumented students support.”
