We have talked about the fact that not only are there Members of the Senate who are on record saying what the President did was an overreach. there are 11 Democratic Senators who come from States that filed a suit claiming irreparable damages to their States and will have an opportunity to vote for the Collins amendmenthopefully here soon. I wish to ask the Senator: There is one part of what the Presidents Executive order does that. to me. stands out above and beyond the constitutional issues. and that is the ability of people who have committed domestic violence. child exploitation. sexual abuse. and child molestation to somehow get kicked back to the end of the line when it comes to being repatriated to their state. For example. we all understand. as I said earlier. immigrants come here for a better life. We all understand that. We would hope they would come and play by the rules as opposed to not playing by the rules.
