    My constituents have been clear: No amnesty for illegal immigrants. My no vote today reflected my commitment to them that I will never support amnesty. The bill included some good things but went too far in granting amnesty for about 2M people who came into this country illegally

        The House should focus on winning enough votes to pass the original Goodlatte-McCaul bill that accomplished everything that we as conservatives want: building a border wall, cracking down on sanctuary cities, ending the visa lottery system, and stopping chain migration. #LA05

        History behind this is we overlooked folks entering illegally 4 yrs so we could have landscapers, maids, farm workers, etc. who'd be paid cheaply under the table. Please spare me the hardline now. We all caused this. Draw date line, let those here already have amnesty & MOVE ON.

        Ur constituents want citizenship granted to the kids (now adults) that came here (with no power to do otherwise) & have only known America & contributed to it their whole lives. Just as immigrants become citizens after 10yrs of greencards/visas & finally take the citizenship test

        Words like this is why my hispanic friends will never vote Republican and neither will I. Hateful racist.

        Mexico's immigration laws are much tougher. Plus, Mexico has a wall on their Southern border with Guatemala. Are they racists?pic.twitter.com/2YJmtkqVXS

        Yeah dude, Please retire. The heart and soul of America is built on immigrants. It is built on genocide. It is built on slaves. We deserve to treat people better. It is frankly disgusting and I do not respect you or anyone who has these same views.

        What constituents? You full of it. Your Constituents want Immigration Reform. You are INSANE if you think at this point you are going to not handle the status of those here. Also, it can be argued you allowed this stupid mess, you need to workout their status.

        We thank you. America is a privilege that people need to choose to join. The legal immigration process educates people about our nation & should never be bypassed!!!

        What is wrong with a path to citizenship, if had no say in what happened? Do you think we should deport every illegal and close the U.S. Mexico border because child trafficking is so rampant and it is unreasonable to provide hearings for all non-citizens?
