I would notice that there is a certain smell here of jet fumes; that this Chamber is completely empty, here, July 25, my colleagues--well, it is empty for the most part. My colleagues are headed off to the airport to fly home; fly home for…
I appreciate the gentleman's question. I think it is an important question. To take down the American flag, deface the American flag with the words ``abolish ICE,'' to turn it upside down and re-raise it; to raise, then, the Mexican flag…
my Democrat colleagues don't give a damn about our national security or the migrants coming here, and they prefer to use children as political props.
I thank the gentleman for his leadership tonight in bringing an opportunity for us to speak on the floor of the House of Representatives on an issue that is front and center for most of the American people. It is, by far, the number one…
I mean, my goodness, we're going to have over a million illegal immigrants that we apprehend.
I have been to the border many times, and to this day I have never seen a kid in a cage...
I, too, believe that we ought to make sure there are no barriers between the American people and anybody who wants to be able to provide services and help in any way.

I realize the purpose of this hearing, of course, is to focus on the economic impact of immigration, illegal, legal, et cetera, and trying to figure out policies to address it.
And yet my colleagues on the other side of the aisle refuse to recognize that.
I would suggest to my colleague on the other side of the aisle, he must not be saying when he's saying that he's seeking one honest that everyone on this side of the aisle is somehow dishonest.
I was unavoidably detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall No. 403, ``nay'' on rollcall No. 404, ``yea'' on rollcall No. 405, and ``nay'' on rollcall No. 406. The Acting CHAIR. There being no further amendments…
I thank the gentleman for his leadership here on the floor today. Is there a crisis? I think there is, and I am glad that we are here today where our colleagues on the other side of the aisle are finally acknowledging that there is a…
This legislation falls short. This legislation that the House leadership has put forward has been late, does not address the problem, and will, in fact, make the problem worse by binding the hands of Border Patrol and binding the hands of…
