Arrest the people that are not doing what they should do. But those who are working hard. paying taxes. should have an opportunity to be able to be part of this great American dream. And. Mr. Speaker. what about the soldiers on the battle line who are seeking citizenship. but have undocumented relatives. offering their lives for Americans and the undocumented relatives which they seek to bring into status. are now criminalized and arrested and incarcerated simply for their presence in the United States? So I hope. as we proceed. we will find ways to defeat these amendments. And I ask that we defeat the underlying bill.
