Let me tell you that there are people in Texas who are ready to serve and help the unaccompanied children. There are people in Texas who recognize that we are the good Samaritans. Dont label us with wanting $594 million. and dont label us with standing against the DACA children. the DREAMers. who have come to this country and been here for 5 years. Mr. Speaker. these children ran into the arms of the Border Patrol. There is no criminal or legal crisis at the border. but the DACA bill that is here on the floor of the House is a disgrace to the words of the StarSpangled Banner. We are the home of the free and the brave. We are free enough to be able to welcome those in need. This body knows that DACA has nothing to do with the unaccompanied children. and it is a disgrace that we would undermine the hardworking students like Juan Jesus in my office this summer. that we would undermine it with a disgraceful billa disgraceful bill. It is disgraceful. Pass comprehensive immigration reform. Mr. Speaker.
