Democrat Says Claim That Toddlers Can Learn Immigration Law Is 'Stupid'

WASHINGTON --  The top Senate Judiciary Committee Democrat has denounced the fact that toddlers and children are still going without lawyers in deportation cases and lambasted an immigration judge who downplayed that injustice.

Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.). challenged Attorney General Loretta Lynch on Wednesday over why the department she heads goes ahead with immigration cases even when children have no legal representation.
