If it gets through [the House Rules Committee], I don’t think it survives on the floor in the current form it’s in.

The White House enlightened holdouts how its implementation would accomplish what they want, but wouldn’t give specifics.

I wouldn't mind if my daughter had been in the room with us.

I don’t see how we pass this by Friday.

What the Senate did is unconscionable.

What they did to our bill was unconscionable.

Two children will not have a mother to come home to. It can happen anywhere, at any time. That’s the sad part. We’ve seen it all over the country.

The positive thing is: the border’s secure now, but you’ve got to realize: four years of leaving the doors open to over 160 countries to put criminals and anybody else that wanted to come into the country.

This stuff is real serious.
