Mr. GALLEGOS amendment that we put on in committee is one small piece of doing that. to give them the opportunity to serve in the United States military. and then be given legal status. I think we need to do a lot more than that. I think we need comprehensive immigration reform so we can bring the undocumented population out of the shadows. give them a path to citizenship. I support Mr. GALLEGOS amendment. I oppose the effort by Mr. BROOKS to strip it. I think it is the least our country can do for someone who is willing to fight and potentially die on our behalf. to give them legal status. to treat them as the Americans that they truly are.
