Mr. Speaker. we are a Nation with a Constitution and a Bill of Rights. with human rights. and thats what makes our country so great. These rights were violated for hundreds of families in immigration raids throughout the country. including Postville. Iowa. What we fail to see at times are the longlasting and devastating impact raids leave behind. In Postville. hundreds of children have been ripped from their families. elderly left to fend for themselves. single parents forced to wear ankle bracelets are prohibited from working to feed their children. And the schools now resemble ghost towns with the absence of so many children.
