I rise in strong support of the rule and the conference report. Mr. Speaker. millions of illegal aliens have been pouring into our country. and we have heard year after year after year a reason of why we should not act. There is always going to be a reason that the other side will prevent us from acting. In fact. for years those of us on the Republican side have begged for an immigration bill. and we have been prevented time and time again from having any type of legislation where we could come to grips with this problem. In California. our health facilities and our schools have been flooded with illegal aliens. Our public services are stretched to the breaking point. Tens of billions of dollars that should be going to benefit our own citizens are being drained away to provide services and benefits to foreigners who have come here illegally. Who is to blame? Certainly not the immigrants. We cannot blame them if we are to provide them with all these services and benefits. This administration and the liberal Democrats. who have controlled both Houses of Congress for decades. have betrayed the trust of the American people.
