And for those individuals who say this has nothing to with people coming here illegally. we have documents showing. in fact testimony that showed up in the paper where an illegal woman was caught at the border with three letters form a school district that said your children will get a free education even if you are here illegally. Now. Mr. Speaker. in the words of this lady. she said. you want us here. You want us to come here illegally. You would not reward us and give us free education. Mr. Speaker. the message that needs to be sent not here in these Chambers but to the rest of the world and America. is that. no. the days of encouraging illegal immigration is over. We are not going to reward people for breaking the law. We are not going to punish those who play by the rules and reward those who break the rules.
