Our doctors and nurses do everything they can to help these individuals. regardless of their status. in order to save lives and to nurse them back to health. Todays hospitals are already underfunded. understaffed. and under tremendous pressure to meet the new demands of homeland security preparedness. I think we can all agree that our Nations immigration system is broken. It does not meet our security needs. our economic needs. nor does it reflect the American values of strong families and respect for work. However. we will never fix our countrys immigration ills by punishing our local hospitals for treating the Ill. I urge my colleagues to vote "no" on the Tancredo amendment.
