Mr. Speaker. I appreciate the chance to speak before the House today. and its about an issue that many Americans all over this Nation are discussing. are listening about. and. frankly. are very concerned. if not outraged. and that is the proposal before the Senate this week that would actually not only allow. but demand amnesty for 12- to 20 million illegal immigrants in this country while millions wait patiently outside to immigrate into our country legally. Tonight I am honored to be able to have colleagues here to be able to address the issues and actually talk about whats going on in their districts and address the issue that where does America go from here? How do we stop the Senate from making this terrible mistake? How do we turn the President and the Senate away from the path of amnesty that was followed in 1986. which caused the greatest influx of illegal immigration? How do we get the elite here in Washington to wake up to the fact that you do not stop illegal immigration by announcing to the world that you are now going to reward up to 20 million people who are Illegally in the country? I have the privilege to recognize the gentleman from Texas at this time.
