That should be our concern. And I am here to tell you and we give testament tonight that it is not. For the next few weeks. my colleagues and I will take this floor. and we will demonstrate to you over and over again the contribution of the immigrant to this country. that their sons and daughters have donned this uniform. We have placed them in harms way. and they have performed honorably and with great courage. There is no difference in that courage or the contribution that they make because of their ethnicity or undocumented status of a parent. You saw the face of that young boy from Guatemala who was an orphan who came to the United States illegally. Now. he wasnt good enough. brave enough. strong enough to maybe deserve getting an apartment in a certain town in Texas:. but he was good enough and brave enough to serve as a United States Marine and give his life up defending this country.
