I hope I have made my point that ICE is in a position to enforce. They are hands-on with the employers in the work site, and that is where the utilization of Basic Pilot takes place. I believe it is incumbent upon this Congress to…
Steve King
The Public Record
Steve King is a former Republican member of the United States House of Representatives, representing Iowa's 4th congressional district from 2003 to 2021. Known for his conservative views, King was a prominent figure in the House, often advocating for strict immigration policies and fiscal conservatism. He served on several committees during his tenure, including the Judiciary Committee and the Agriculture Committee, where he focused on issues important to his rural constituents. King's tenure was marked by controversy over his remarks on race and immigration, which drew criticism from both sides of the political spectrum.
I believe that since we have ICE working all across this country, working with many of the employers, that the knowledge base and the promotion of Basic Pilot would be something that would be mobile and portable and flexible. Since it is…
This is an important symbolic vote, and we've worked on this for years. I didn't realize how difficult it was to convince the Department of Homeland Security what was going on here, but this letter in response that they have written where…
Well, I thank Mr. Braley, and in reclaiming my time, I appreciate you coming to the floor tonight to enter your remarks into this Record and to voice your sentiments about Wiley Mayne. I didn't realize that you had a relationship that had…
I have to reflect upon what has transpired here just today on the floor of the House of Representatives, and that is passing legislation that improves our lobbying reform and puts more sunlight on the donations that come from lobbying. And…
And I thank the gentleman. But for a point of clarity, we are here. We are amending current law because we essentially have a promise we can't keep without amending current law. And that fits within a definition of amnesty, to amend…
I suspect the Iraqis will read this amendment if it becomes law. I suspect that my critics haven't all read this amendment. I hope they have, because I don't think we really disagree on the policy.
The thought that goes through my mind as I listen to that discussion about the cumulative total of legal immigrants in the United States, it occurs to me that the Senate bill that passed last year that they said was not amnesty, that the…
I look at this overall immigration policy that we have, and I think there are some great big blanks out there and questions that are asked and not answered, seldom asked and never answered. The first question that one should ask is, Is…
This immigration issue is so complicated, so unpredictable and has so many hypotheticals that I contend that it is impossible for a body of 100 Senators or 435 House Members or a President to chart a course through that and be able to put…
This bill presumably also requires the Iraqi government to meet the key security, political and economic benchmarks established by the President in his State of the Union address. That was January 10.
I have long supported that language, going clear back into the seventies as an employer and a small business owner. I have spent my life in small business. I started one in 1975. I met payroll for over 28 years. That is over 1,400…
I think I would work myself onto that group of people coming across that southern border rather than try to get qualified through an intense vetting process.
I take us back to how do we identify this enemy that we are fighting? ... It was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found and to make slaves of all they could not take as prisoners, and that every Muslim who…
I would like to have the privilege to address the subject matter that he raised and the issue of the Iraq Study Group. And it is somewhat of a long book to read through, but I had a conversation this afternoon with the gentleman from…
I would say if it is good enough for Prince Charles, it should be good enough for the imperial Pelosi regime.
What are the odds of the people within your stadiums in Florida with 60,000 or more people in them, what are the odds of them paying Federal taxes compared to that of American Samoa?
This motion to recommit is a motion about cloning. Many of the other civilized nations in the world have taken a position against cloning. This Congress has taken a position against cloning, but there isn't a way in the laboratory to move…
Yesterday what happened in the minimum wage bill seemed to be discriminatory for some reasons that I think we all know. I am not aware that there is a political subdivision, a geographical area or even a subdivision of some university that…
Chairman Hunter, I would ask you, would you care to comment on the remarks on the position that Iraq is a diversion on this global war on terror and it didn't have anything to do with Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda?
Reclaiming my time. I pose the question to the gentleman from Massachusetts, and that is, Are you advocating that we send 150,000 troops to Afghanistan? I yield.
I would be happy to yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the next governor of the State of Oklahoma, and a cosponsor of this amendment, Mr. Istook. {time} 1530
I would be happy to yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentlewoman from Florida (Ms. Ginny Brown-Waite), also a cosponsor of this amendment.
The answer is ``no,'' this amendment does not change the Federal law that allows voters to bring their own interpreter.
No, this amendment does not impose restrictions on printing ballots in languages other than English.
