President Trump has embraced somewhat similar rhetoric in his quest to reduce the undocumented immigrant population in the United States.

Rep. Richard Neal , speaks during a news conference held by House Democrats condemning the Trump Administration's targeting of the Affordable Care Act's pre-existing condition, in the US Capitol on June 13, 2018 in Washington, DC. Neal's recent comments about immigrants, apparently quoting President Barack Obama, have drawn scrutiny.

"I also want to say this, and don't think of this as a partisan statement, when Barack Obama used to say 'Get in line and learn English,' that's Obama's quote, that's not mine, I think he was right about that," Neal said at the event."And I think register, get in line and learn English, that's where we want to be."

Obama also said during a 2008 interview as a presidential candidate that"immigrants should learn English." Trump has embraced somewhat similar rhetoric in his quest to reduce the undocumented immigrant population in the United States, including policies his administration has enacted which disfavor Hispanic immigrants.
