I worked with MIKE COFFMAN of Denver and stood up with AARON SCHOCK and ADAM KINZINGER in my own State of Illinois. But now STEVE KING. MICHELE BACHMANN. and TED CRUZ are literally writing the immigration script for the Republican Party. a script filled with ugly and mean policies that demonize children and marginalize immigrants and destroy families. In January. you were saying that all of the DREAMers should get green cards and citizenship. We always understood you wanted to deport their parents. But now. late on a Friday night. you are going after the DREAMers. who have known no other country but this one. who risked their identities and their families to come forward and sign up with the Department of Homeland Security and pass FBI background checks so they could get right with the law.
