  • 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
