Speech #1140002184

Sadly. we have had so many broken promises in this House that the day would come when people of goodwill in both parties could come together and consider broader reform. Yet we are still denied that opportunity. Republican leaders have apparently given up on resolving the broken immigration system. They will stop at nothing to avoid doing anything. This amended bill would deny the right to learn. the right to work. It would deny hope for so many of these young people who pledge allegiance to America. who have so much to offer. Pandering to angry isolationists is not a sound immigration policy. It is not what this country. where the Statue of Liberty stands so tall. is all about.
