There is no excuse for Congressman King's hostile lack of respect for Arturo Venegas. He is a veteran of the war in Vietnam, the former Chief of Police of Sacramento, California, and an American citizen despite being born abroad, because the child of a US citizen is legally an American citizen as well, and doesn't need a special visa to enter the country. Congressman King is an embarrasment.

Your GOPathetic Representative
Outspoken anti-immigrant Congressman Steve King (R-IA) during a congressional hearing questioned an official witness, Arturo Venegas, about his coming to the U.S. Venegas stated he was brought to the country as a child by his U.S.-born mother. To which King inquired, “Can you just tell us what year and what visa, then, Mr. Venegas?”
