- Mr Speaker I want the American people to
- know with eyes wide open what is inside
- this bill this measure first introduced
- by representative Mike Collins would
- require ice detention for illegal aliens
- who were charged with arrested for or
- convicted of any burglary theft larsy or
- shoplifting
- offense now the Democrats have argued
- that while mere accusation of committing
- a crime should not be grounds for
- detention and besides shoplifting is no
- big deal well they ignore the fact that
- every illegal alien is currently
- required to be detained by current law
- Lake and Riley was killed while going
- for a jog that's the issue an innocent
- woman who never did anything to anybody
- harmful in her life that wanted to be a
- nurse that wanted to help other people
- that couldn't even get the last damn
- telephone call from her mother was
- 1:00
- murdered and then I hear from the
- ranking member while the vast majority
- of illegals don't commit crimes my God I
- hope not because we've got close to 10
- million of them as best we can tell but
- there are thou there are hundreds that
- were on the terror watch list thousands
- that have committed crimes and where the
- problems really do exist and that's
- unacceptable we stand here just two days
- after president Trump gave unconditional
- pardons to Violent criminals who
- attacked our nation's capital on January
- 6th and these are the people who want
- you to believe who want us to believe
- that they're trying to quote unquote
- keep criminals off the streets they are
- opening when they are opening the
- floodgates I want the American people to
- know what is in this bill because in the
- guise and in the in the wake of tragedy
- we are seeing a fundamental erosion of
- our civil rights in this bill if a
- person is so much as a accused of a
- 2:01
- crime if someone wants to point a finger
- and accuse someone of shoplifting they
- will be rounded up and put into a
- private detention camp and signed and
- sent out for deportation without a day
- in court without a moment to assert
- their right and without a moment to
- assert the privilege of innocent until
- proven guilty without being found guilty
- of a crime they will be rounded up that
- is what is inside this bill a
- fundamental suspension
- of a core American value and that is why
- I Rise to oppose it if you're a dreamer
- all someone has to do is point a finger
- and you will be rounded up and we have
- seen moments like these happened before
- in The Patriot Act in the wake of the
- travesty of 911 a fundamental suspension
- of American civil liberties that is what
- we are seeing here today Mr Speaker you
- may wonder why so many of our friends AC
- across the aisle who care so deeply
- 3:01
- about the rule of law happen to be so
- desperate to pass this bill after they
- are unleashing people who attacked
- police officers here on the C on this
- Capital into roaming our streets who are
- publicly saying now they want to get a
- gun suddenly these folks care about
- Public Safety I don't think so look no
- further than the price tag of this bill
- $83
- billion they know that it can't be paid
- for they know that the capacity is not
- there and you know what will be there
- private prison companies are going to
- get flooded with money who give this
- money no doubt I want Folks at home to
- look look at what members of Congress
- are invested in private prison companies
- who receive this kind of money and look
- at the votes on this
- bill it is
- atrocious that people are are lining
- their pockets with private prison
- 4:00
- profits in the name of a horrific
- tragedy and the victim of a crime it is
- shameful it is absolutely
- shameful and Mr Speaker I'll conclude
- with this in a few months there are
- members of Congress who voted for this
- bill who are going to pretend they
- didn't know about all the bad things
- that are going to happen because of it
- so when a private prison camp opens in
- your town when a dreamer
time has
- expired
I yeld the G lady in additional
- 30 seconds
so when a private prison camp
- opens in your town and they say we
- didn't know this was going to happen no
- that they did and they voted for it when
- a dreamer is disappeared from your
- classroom when the president of the
- United States destroys what is left of
- the Constitution as he's announced in
- this attack on Birthright
- citizenship they will all say we didn't
- know this was coming and I want the
- American people to know that they did
- this vote represents it
and with that I
- yield back thank you very much and
Lady
- 5:01
- yields we reserve G from Maryland
- reserves G from California is recognized
- Mr Speaker I yield two minutes to the
- general lady from Georgia Miss green
- thank
- you well I certainly hope we do open as
- many prisons as possible to round up as
- many illegal aliens that have invaded
- our country and those that are breaking
- our laws killing our citizens women and
- children and causing complete Havoc
- across our great land
