Eleanor Holmes Norton

I am trying to get to the due process question.

Now, if you caught those people at the border, that would be one thing, but they are now in our criminal justice system.

Part of this is the frustration, forgive me, with due process of law.

The Obama Administration has removed more people from this Country than any administration in history.

I guarantee you, if it had been called up for a vote, it would have passed.

The House Republicans refused, refused to call up this bill for a vote.

Almost everyone agrees that our immigration system is broken.

There are about 11 million undocumented immigrants in our Country today.

I also want to indicate my strong support for your work on Brownfields.

I was pleased to see the President's slight increase $3 million for the Chesapeake Bay.

I think of this issue because of Wyoming and Utah.

The opinion also addressed whether it is permissible for the FCC to solicit the views of White House officials.

It is inconceivable in our Republic that the President would be silenced on it.

Until the Federal Government owns up to investing more in the railroad that we own, Amtrak will be running a 20th century railroad--or is it a 19th century railroad, Mr. Chairman?

The materials provided to the OIG are genuine, complete, and in full compliance with the request made by the inspector general.

Yes, I am, Mr. Chairman.

This is just unacceptable.

My colleagues are fond of holding up the Constitution as some kind of prop.

Some of what has been said here today reinforces the administration's policy of prioritizing known criminals for deportation.

I need to tell you that I'm trying to help because of a bill I'm introducing that would fix the irrational disparity because tax benefits available to those who drive and those who use Metro resulting in loss of ridership to Metro.

I particularly have to thank Mr. Rogers. You weren't asked a lot of questions but your courage spoke for itself.

I do believe that that indicates the importance of this hearing to the Federal Government.

I am disappointed that we have no information.

I don't consider that very classified information.

I appreciate that you have recommended that.
