Then, as we have not done anything for DACA, we have not done anything for the children snatched away from their families, the children that I saw for 2 days on the border at Texas--Roger, who I held in my hands; maybe the 2-year-old like this--because what it does is it does nothing to reunite the children. It does nothing, after 20 days, to be able to protect them, because the fake executive order does not go beyond 20 days. Frankly, we don't know where the 2,000 children are, and I know the values of the faith community in America are to reunite. I am saddened that we have this bill. I ask my colleagues to oppose this bill.
