<p>Hillary Clinton appeared in Washington last Thursday to present the Medallion of Excellence Award to a Spanish-American chef by the name of ;Jose Andres. Hillary&#8217;s speech was suddenly interrupted with jeers as immigration activist Juan Carlos Ramos called the Democratic candidate out for accepting donations from corporations that operate private prisons.</p>
<p>&ldquo;My deportation will be your funding!&rdquo; chanted Ramos. The 22-year-old from Maryland represents <em>United We Dream Action</em>, an immigration advocacy group that attended the awards ceremony specifically to heckle Hillary Clinton. Ramos carried a sign that read <strong>Hillary for immigrants in prisons.</strong></p>
<p>The awards ceremony, which took place at the yearly Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute gala, opened with a declaration from Hillary that the GOP field doesn&rsquo;t view the Latino community like she does. It&rsquo;s a big problem, she said, &ldquo;when the leading Republican candidate says Mexicans are rapist and drug dealers.&#8221; ;</p>
<p>Ramos and his cadre, however, didn&#8217;t take the bait. &ldquo;Each dollar of private prison money accepted by the Clinton campaign undermines her pro-immigrant policy promises,&#8221; said Ramos, &#8220;and our community will not be fooled.&#8221; ;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Our message to Hillary Clinton is simple: Immigrant youth do not trust you. It&rsquo;s time to drop the prison money and stand with our community &ndash; you can&rsquo;t have it both ways,&#8221; said Ramos before being dragged away from the event.</p>
<p><em>United We Dream</em> criticized ;Hillary when she told <em>Telemundo</em> that she would not be as aggressive in deporting illegal immigrants as Obama had been. They simply don&rsquo;t believe her. ;&ldquo;She&rsquo;s saying, &lsquo;this is how it&rsquo;s going to be like when I&rsquo;m president&rsquo; but she&rsquo;s accepting money from people deporting our community, what does that say?&rdquo; asks Ramos. ;</p>
<p>Hillary Clinton did not respond to the protestors. ;</p>
