Political Quotes

“Now is the time for immigration reform. Our Nation is already beginning to see some of the great economic benefits of the DACA and DAPA programs, which I vow to do my best to protect here as we go through the Department of Homeland Security appropriations process. The true benefits of immigration reform--which, according to the Congressional Budget Office, are over $200 billion in deficit reduction, finally securing and establishing security on our border, implementing mandatory workplace enforcement to prevent people who are here illegally from undermining the job market for Americans, and creating over 150,000 jobs for American citizens--can only be recognized if this body takes action and passes immigration reform. We had a bill last session that would have passed the floor of the House, and it already passed the Senate. We begin anew.

It is called immigration reform. ____________________”
