You're the ones that say, let's care for the unborn.

I think that the federal government has not lived up to its standard of -- of applying the immigration and fixing our immigration; we should fix our immigration system.

You want to end illegal immigration? Leave un -- leave the mothers that haven't had their children alone. You're the ones that say to us that you're for the sanctity of marriage. You're the ones that say to us that you're pro-life. You're…
