“For many Americans, what seems to be happening or what they believe right now is happening is, what appears to them is we’re replacing national-born Americans, native-born Americans to permanently transform the landscape of this very nation," Perry said.
The Washington Post highlighted Perry's comments comparing them to Tucker Carlson's "toxic rhetoric."

Perry represents Pennsylvania’s 10th district covering all of Dauphin County as well as parts of Cumberland County and York County.
