Before they do. let me remind them the price this country has paid for freedom. Soil around the world is soaked with the blood of our sons and our daughters who gave it all so that we may be freeas Lincoln said. "that last full measure of devotion"-and so those who seek refuge can find safety and security in our country. Despite what the administration wants you to believe. refugees dont seek safe haven because of our welfare benefits. It is because we dont negotiate with terrorists. It is because we recognize our first and greatest responsibility is the life and liberty of those who call America home. We are a Nation of immigrants. We are a Nation of laws. And we are a Nation with a fundamental responsibility to preserve the rights of our citizens. And those rights include life. The United States has one of the most generous legal immigration programs in the world. welcoming the hurting and abandoned. the persecuted and destitute. And we will continue to. But we will not welcome terrorists.
