Speech #1090098863

The distinguished Rules Committee has proposals before them. We do not know what we will get on the floor. Citizenship for people born in the United States. just because their parents were born somewhere else. forfeiture of church property if they provide shelter for illegal immigrants. jail sentences for priests or nuns who help illegal immigrants get food or shelter. these are serious Republican proposals for improving immigration policy of which they have complained without letup since this discussion has begun. The Rules Committee takes these proposals up tomorrow. and we may see them on the floor with recommendations that they become part of this bill. We dont need it to get worse to know that we dont need this measure.
