Now, my last point on this, and I know you know this, but when a
Speaker governs with the Hastert rule, oftentimes the will of the
majority is ignored in this House of Representatives, but it also does
something very insidious. It allows about 25 percent of this body to
control 100 percent of the legislation that comes through here. So I thank the gentleman for bringing up the history and the context
because this Congress and this country missed an incredible opportunity
in 2014 to deal not only with the DACA issue, but also with the many
other issues associated with immigration. So I thank Congressman Soto. Now I yield to Congressman Correa, a wonderful new Member from
California, and welcome him.
