Mr. Chairman, the crazy conjecture of the consequences is clearly confounding. Let's be honest. We are talking about the food, the shelter, and the healthcare that is going directly to illegal immigrants, nothing to American citizens. Keep in mind, it is the jurisdictions who created this problem. It is the jurisdictions that are violating our laws and making a mockery of our system and turning their backs on law enforcement. Mr. Chair, you have girls and women all across the country who have been sexually assaulted by illegals. These are crimes that would never have happened if they were back in their home country if they had never been allowed in this country, if they had not been given sanctuary, had they not been released. So when the gentleman talks about consequences, why doesn't he ask those women and those children? Why doesn't the gentleman ask those families? Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
