How we champion citizenship that we once prized so highly. Madam President. these people are not the poor. They are not the huddled masses who were our ancestors and who came here for freedom to contribute their labor and their values to live. live free. and to raise their families and die here. even in battle. if need be. These people who we welcome for $1 million are coming twice a year because that is the only way they can keep their green card. They dont want citizenship because that would require them to pay taxes. What in the name of God has happened to this place?
