At sight translation 3loor Statement of Senator arack >#ama Immigration &eform

Mr. President, I come to the floor today to enter the debate on comprehensive immigration reform. It is a debate that will touch on the basic questions of morality, the law, and what it means to be an American. I know that this debate evokes strong passions on all sides. The recent peaceful but passionate protests that we saw all across the country !"",""" in #os Angeles and $"",""" in my hometown of %hicago are a testament to this fact, as are the concerns of millions of Americans about the security of our borders. &ut I believe we can work together to pass immigration reform in a way that unites the people in this country, not in a way that divides us by playing on our worst instincts and fears. #ike millions of Americans, the immigrant story is also my story. My father came here from 'enya, and I represent a (tate where vibrant immigrant communities ranging from Me)ican to Polish to Irish enrich our cities and neighborhoods. (o I understand the allure of freedom and opportunity that fuels the dream of a life in the *nited (tates. &ut I also understand the need to fi) a broken system. +hen %ongress last addressed this issue comprehensively in $,-., there were appro)imately / million illegal immigrants living in the *nited (tates. That number had grown substantially when %ongress again addressed the issue in $,,.. Today, it is estimated that there are more than $$ million undocumented aliens living in our country. The American people are a welcoming and generous people. &ut those who enter our country illegally, and those who employ them, disrespect the rule of law. And because we live in an age where terrorists are challenging our borders, we simply cannot allow people to pour into the *nited (tates undetected, undocumented, and unchecked. Americans are right to demand better border security and better enforcement of the immigration laws. The bill the 0udiciary %ommittee has passed would clearly strengthen enforcement. I will repeat that, because those arguing against the 0udiciary %ommittee bill contrast that bill with a strong enforcement bill. The bill the 0udiciary %ommittee passed clearly strengthens enforcement. To begin with, the agencies charged with border security would receive new technology, new facilities, and more people to stop, process, and deport illegal immigrants. &ut while security might start at our borders, it doesn1t end there. Millions of undocumented immigrants live and work here without our knowing their identity or their background. +e need to strike a workable bargain with them. They have to acknowledge that breaking our immigration laws was wrong. They must pay a penalty, and abide by all of our laws going forward. They must earn the right to stay over a . year period, and then they must wait another ! years as legal permanent residents before they become citi2ens.
