Speaker. this motion to recommit guts the bill. There is no question about the fact. My friends on the other side of the aisle do not want to have cooperative agreements between the Federal Government and State and local law enforcement to help enforce the immigration laws. The bill that was never messaged by the other body prohibits such a practice. and that means that our State and local law enforcement officials have their hands tied behind their back when they see violations of immigration laws. They have to see a crime actually committed. which means that if the other side has their way. you are going to have victims. and we dont want that. We want to make sure that the immigration laws are enforced. and 2. Pt. 14 September 21. 2006 we need the help. voluntarily. of State and local law enforcement to be able to do that. The motion to recommit also guts the ability to ensure vigorous enforcement against alien smugglers. and it also guts the ability to end the catch and release of illegal immigrants caught along our borders. Now. in the letter from Secretary Chertoff of the Department of Homeland Security that I introduced into the RECORD earlier In this debate. clearly shows the problem that has occurred as a result of an injunction against expedited removal of Salvadorans. Now. what nationality are the people in the MS13 gangs?
Identified stereotypes
Associating Salvadorans with MS13 gangs.
