It was not my experience. It was not my hard work. and God knows it was not my intellect. It was the fact that the people in the 50th District wanted something done. they wanted a job and a message sent to Washington. that now and here is the time to address illegal immigration. We did not enjoy the situation or appreciate the problem that created the vacancy. but let me say quite clearly what is obvious in the last few months is that the greatest scandal in America is not that one man broke the law. but that 12 million illegal immigrants are in this country and Washington is not doing enough about it. So I ask you. even if you disagree with me on this issue. let us join together and work to address this issue so that both sides. Democrat and Republican. and Independent. can go home proud that we did right by the American people and worked together Aderholt Akin Alexander Allen Andrews Baca Bachus Baird Baker Barrett (SC) Barrow Bartlett (MD) Bass Bean Beauprez Becerra Berman Berry Biggert Bllbray Bilirakis Bishop (GA) Bishop (NY) Bishop (UT) Blunt Boehlert Boehner Bonilla Bonner Bono Boozman Boren Boswell Boucher Boustany Boyd Bradley (NH) Brady (PA) Brady (TX) Brown (OH) Brown (SC) Brown.
