It is the current law; it should happen.

I want to make sure, when you get back to me by, say, the end of the month--you said two weeks...

But what I worry about is you have fugitive aliens by the hundreds of thousands. You have people who aren't willing to play by the rules.

Most people, as you all have said and I believe, that come here, they come here legally, lawfully; they are good, honest, decent people.

You know, I am one that wants to fix legal immigration. We can make the fence as big and wide and far as you want, but if you don't fix legal immigration it is never, ever going to work.

Most of the answers are we are going to get you the answers later.

But my understanding is not everybody shows up for that asylum hearing.

Honestly, there has to be a prioritization going on here.

It will have great economic cost. By the EPA's own estimate, $90 billion.

And I think we need that. We have a bigger obligation for this Country to make sure we get it right, rather than we get it fast, and that is my deep concern.

It is terribly frustrating. And I don't understand the games that the legislative liaisons sometimes play.

I watched dozens of kids probably in the third, fourth, fifth grade, pretty young, crossing the borders all by themselves.

why such a dramatic increase? We have nearly 300,000-plus, more than 300,000 border crossing cards issued in the Obama Administration than the Bush Administration.

Well, given that the Congress had already passed this law more than 10 years ago, I do think that the American people have spoken that, yes, they want to have this happen.

I don't understand why this is so difficult.

If you would indulge me for one moment. I just want a point of clarification from Mr. Ramotowski.

Cartels cost Americans many billions of dollars every single year.

Cartel activity has no redeeming value, no virtue.
