Because nothing would have honored the sacrifices more than to be recognized and acknowledge their love for this country. Mr. Speaker. our country is currently engaged in a great debate regarding immigration. And there are many who want to diminish or even deny the great contributions of immigrants to our Nations history. economy. and culture. And many of these have contributed and continue to contribute to our country because they believe in this country. They come here for hope. for freedom and opportunity and are willing to serve and die for this country. But as we move forward in this debate. let us not forget the 69.300 immigrants soldiers out there in the battlefields. those who are willing to risk their lives every day to protect the same people who are criticizing them. the same people who are criticizing. theyre willing to stand up and defend those individuals because they believe in the principles and the freedoms and opportunities of this country. I urge the American people to support all troops. all individuals and the sacrifices of every one of our soldiers. regardless of where they were born. because at the end of the day they are willing to give their lives for this country and to sacrifice for this country. Each one of them are patriots and are true American heroes.
