But instead. that legislation is being held hostage because some disagree with the Presidents executive actions. Mr. Speaker. I helped introduce H.R. 15. a comprehensive immigration reform bill during the last Congress. But we never got a vote. If leadership agrees that this is such an important issue. so important that it is worth defunding an essential federal agency. then Congress should be working right now on comprehensive immigration reform and consider legislation immediatelybut after we finish our job of funding the Department of Homeland Security. We need to stop playing politics and fund the Department of Homeland Security now.
