I thank the gentlewoman for her leadership and the ranking member for his leadership. Madam Chair. this is a full force assault on immigrants. It is an assault on the integrity of this Nation which was built upon the investment and the love of this country by immigrants from all over the world. As I look to the landscape of what we now confront2.000 dead in Nigeria by Boko Haram. little girls dressed with suicide bombs. and Homeland Security being held hostage by an assault on immigrationlet me say to you that the Constitution has given the President the authority under the "take care" provision. so this assault of amendments that is trying to chip away at these executive actions is a false premise in order to attack the ideas and the values of this Nation. In my own State. if the actions of the Presidents are in place. we will gain $8.2 billion in gross domestic product and $19.2 billion over 10 years. a decade. Do you think we need the underlying amendment or amendments?
