So as we think about our responsibilities as the United States of America. a Nation that had 12 million people without documents when the President was sworn into office50.000 children. just like the 5yearold girl that my colleague said he met and talked tothe idea that our moral responsibility is to say to her. "You go back to where you came from." I dont believe that that is what we should be doing. So I reject thisnot because of the numbers or the other things. I think this is morally deficient. that our great country would say. as we demand other countries around the world take in refugees who are facing dangerous circumstances. that what our answer is. No. not here. Not in our backyard.
