They will take it up. Mr. Speaker. why are we punting on the issues? Amendments were submitted to deal with this. but they were rejected by the Rules Committee. That means if this rule passes. there will be no debate. let alone a vote on whether these provisions should be included. I think that is wrong. and I would urge my colleagues to vote no on this rule so amendments can be considered. This is too important an issue to gag this debate. Let us have a real debate. a constructive debate that will actually do something about the problem of illegal immigration.
