And then they rode the fence instead of riding the herd. We can do the same thing on the southern border. We can get the Border Patrol to ride the fence instead of out there chasing around in the desert for 11.000 people a day scattered across in the night trying to bring them together. We need to build a fence. Mr. Speaker. and we need to end birthright citizenship. This chain migration grows and cannot be controlled if we do not. There are 300.000 to 350.000 babies born in this country to mothers who are illegal in America. that do not have a lawful presence here. But we. by practice. grant them birthright citizenship. and the chain migration begins. That baby then. when it reaches age. can petition for mother and father and siblings to come into the United States. Now let me submit that I believe that there are not 12 million illegals in this country. because I have been counting the noses of those coming across the southern border.
