- Conservatives accusing them of being too lenient on illegal immigration
- Progressives calling for more action to protect the rights of undocumented immigrants
Moreover, critics of Jean-Pierre’s statement have pointed out that her comments are misleading Some have also accused Jean-Pierre of using the language of the right to appease conservative critics, rather than taking a principled stance on the issue…

However, the debate over immigration continues to divide the country. It remains to be seen whether the administration will be able to achieve its goals in this area.
