Giving Amnesty to Millions of Illegal Aliens

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. GROTHMAN. Madam Speaker, I would like to address the Build Back Better bill. Earlier this week the Border Patrol announced that they had found 557 bodies of people who were trying to get into this country last year. That is more than double what it was a year ago.

I am shocked that after finding all these bodies, either dehydrating in the heat, drowning in the Rio Grande, or falling off the 30-foot high fence, that they still are doing all they can to cause illegal immigration in this country.

In particular, in this bill, you are still trying to give amnesty to millions of people, which acts as a magnet for people to come here. You are still trying to give free college tuition to people who come in this country illegally, while the middle class in this country--who you apparently don't care for--goes tens of thousands of dollars in debt to get that degree.

This is happening all at the time that President Biden is apparently negotiating giving families, who try to come here illegally, $450,000.

Please, majority party, give up on this horrible Build Back Better bill, which is just one more effort to transform and change America.
