Mr. Speaker. I have a bill in that would make it illegal to deal in female genital mutilation in this country. I know many people think that this is not an issue. But in todays newspaper. once again. we see it as an issue in a woman who was about to be deported with her two young daughters. It is very. very frightening: If they go back home. both of the children will be genitally mutilated. That had happened to her. and that is the culture. and that is what she will be returning to. This appears to be some kind of a domestic dispute between herself and her husband.
