PLASKETT. Mr. Speaker, I was really very interested in the
discussion the gentlewoman had and about the work that you have done to
alleviate poverty both in the Democratic Caucus as well as the
Congressional Black Caucus, particularly her words about not allowing
immigration to be divisive and used as a means to separate Americans
and not being able to realize the American Dream. America is big enough
to have immigrants under a comprehensive immigration plan that will
allow all of us to be able to lift it up. I want to thank the gentlewoman for her leadership on that and
particularly the fight that she has been fighting for so many years
when it comes to alleviating poverty in the United States. Mr.
