Why would you reward somebody that you needed to go to the trouble to adjudicate them for removal. deport them back to their home country. and then do as they said in the Gang of Eight bill? They have a provision in that bill that thankfully the House didnt take up. It is the "we really didnt mean it" clause in which they say. written into the Gang of Eights bill. if you have been deported in the past and you are in your home country today. after the Gang of Eight bill presumably passed. you can apply to come to the United States. We deported you before. but we really didnt mean it. We can bring you back in here. If we hadnt caught you in America and you had been here when the Gang of Eight bill would potentially become law. then. if you get to stay under those provisions. then you get to come back to America if you have previously been deported. I think that is lunacy. Mr. Speaker. to be going to all the trouble to enforce the law and then to reverse course with that and provide the "we didnt really mean it" clause. That bill. by the way. had in it prospective amnesty. In other words. it didnt deal with people who would come in after it became law. so. presumably. they would be treated with the same kind of amnesty or pass for those who were in America. and those that had been deported from America get to come back to America. too. with some exceptions if you are a bad enough criminal. The logic of this is beyond my ability to reason with it. Mr.
