Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, a sign: ``Not our kids, not our problems,'' held angrily by a mob, shaken with ``go home,'' to a group of little children who have made a perilous journey to this country. That really epitomizes what the Republican approach to this problem is. They care about these children so much that their proposal is to tell them to get out of here just as quick as they can, before they can present their claims that they were trafficked, or that they suffer a return to violence, murder, and rape at home. The second thing they do, instead of unclogging our broken immigration system, is to say we need more semiautomatic weapons and military uniforms on our borders to greet these little children. Finally, they say to another group of students, those who have told us ``I have a dream,'' our DREAMers, that they want to turn that dream into a nightmare and send them away also. I think that is the wrong approach. It is time for them to get off Cruz Control and join us for comprehensive immigration reform.”
