When a Dreamer has disappeared from your classroom and when the President of the United States destroys what is left of the Constitution as he has announced in his attack on birthright citizenship, they will all say: We didn't know this was coming. I want the American people to know that they did. This vote represents it. Mr. McCLINTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from Georgia (Ms. Greene).
