The Senator from New Jersey talked about legislation that was debated and voted on a year agolegislation that I believe. if passed into law. would only make the problem worse. would only increase illegal immigration. would only exacerbate the problem. I. as do most Americans. want to see commonsense immigration reform. but not reform that fails to secure the border. that grants a pathway to citizenship for those here illegally. and that incentivizes further and further illegal immigration. But that legislation was a year ago. The President of the United States tells us we have a humanitarian crisis on the border todayright now. not a year ago. todaywith little boys and little girls being subjected to physical and sexual violence and being victimized.
