"What we need is better, smarter, and more effective border enforcement, combined with broad, broader immigration law reforms."

"We have seen the ways in which inflexibility in lawmaking can lead to perverse incentives and unwanted or hazardous results."

"I think we want to make sure that what we are doing is being smart, we are being transparent."

"Thank you, Madam Chairwoman, and to Chairman McCaul as well and to Ranking Member Jackson Lee."
