We are a Nation of laws because law provides order and structure and predictability and peace and equality and justice.
I am encouraged by Committee Chairman DeFazio's announcement last week of a transformational five-year, $760 billion investment in infrastructure.
I support conservative immigration reform because our current system simply does not work for the individuals who share our beliefs and deeply desire to be here.
We need to fix our immigration system and invest in this part of the world to get to the root of the problem in this crisis.
