And let me just say. Mr. Speaker. that I am very concerned about the vote that was just taken today in terms of Syrian refugees. We were asked to have a pause. Well. if you dont feel that 18 to 24 months is a pause in getting into this country. passing a 13- to 14mark checklist. by the time a 5yearold gets into this country. he is 7. I think that the bill that was just voted on was flawed and miscued. We have a system in place that gives enough time and ample time to make sure that these people seeking asylum have the right to come here. as we have done throughout the history of this Nation.
