Speech #1130114286

Mr. Speaker. this is just my first term. but during my time here I have seen some truly low moments. But this is the saddest day so far. We just voted to send children back to unspeakable violence. and now we are considering deporting young people brought to this country through no fault of their own. It reminded me of the words of Pastor Martin Niemoller. Words that I have hanging in my office: First they came for the Socialists. and I did not speak outBecause I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists. and I did not speak out Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
