When your daughter is threatened with rape and murder if she doesn't
become a sexual slave to gang members; when your son and the entire
family is threatened with death if the boy doesn't join the gangs,
wouldn't you run away and try to find safety someplace else? And when the family arrives at the U.S. border and they actively seek
out the U.S. Border Patrol and voluntarily surrender to them and ask
for safe refuge and asylum, is that really entering our borders
illegally? You know, when you have been an upstanding member of the community
for 10, 15, 20 years or more in the United States, and you get pulled
over because the tags have expired on your car, or your license, do you
really deserve to be deported, to tear apart your family, to leave
behind the businesses that you have spent a lifetime creating? And does anyone in this Chamber honestly think that if this father or
mother is deported, that they won't do everything they can to try to
come back to be with their kids? I mean, these are real stories. It is not fiction.
