Mr. Speaker. I appreciate that we will likely have an extended debate next year when we visit again the issue of comprehensive immigration reform. I dont want to get into a debate today. I will just say a core principle of immigration law has always been that the United States Government doesnt tell American citizens who they get to fall in love with and marry. And a second core principle is. when our U.S. citizen marries somebody from another country. the American doesnt have to move to France. his wife gets to move here. So thats something that we will protect as this debate goes forward.
