illegal immigration. the president has ordered violations of the constitution's 14th amendment, denying the legitimacy of millions of americans, their citizenship, and threatening to deport babies born in america. he's threatening to use the military to arrest, detain and remove people without proving to courts they are removable. his orders explicitly declare that he is above u.s. law and he asserts he can ignore any immigration law that you, members of congress, write. the president may have joked he wanted to be a dictator for a day, but he is not one. you, congress, should defend your powers and the u.s. constitution and our rights before they're gone. america's immigrants are with you. they come because america is the land of the free. let's keep it that way. thank you. >> thank you. we'll finally hear from ms. jessica vaughn. >> thank you. i appreciate the chance to focus today on the most important things that congress should do to restore immigration enforcement and integrity in our immigration la

what policy and immigration did we get from yesterday? guest 2.: the action is what america wanted to see after four years of unchecked immigration to have over 10 or 12 million depending on how you count illegal aliens coming into the country and the majority is staying here. very few deported or removed, is ok to take a pause and say let's get our arms around who is here and trying to understand better vetting in place to understand who is coming here and making sure you enforce the rule of law. for four years, immigration law simply hasn't been enforced. the american people, obviously on november 5 wanted a change of those executive orders deliver that change. host 1.: of those signed, what was the strongest one in your mind? guest 2.: it allows dod resources to help in that fight and making sure the border is secure it. there were several others, you need physical infrastructure in certain areas, not entirely across the border but didn't certain areas but that construction was all but halted for the past years and a lot of that law wa

that has to do with immigration. catholic bishops condemned some of the executive orders signed by president trump, specifically those allowing immigration and customs enforcement to enter churches and schools. do you personally support the idea of conducting a raid or enforcement action in a church service, at a school? >> let me address this. of course, if you have a person who is convicted of a violent crime, whether they are an illegal immigrant or not, you have to go and get that person to protect the public safety. that's not unique to immigration. let me address this issue, margaret. as a practicing catholic, i was heartbroken by that statement. i think the u.s. conference of catholic bishops needs to look in the mirror and recognize that when they receive over $100 million to help resettle illegal immigrants, are they worried about humanitarian concerns? are they worried about their bottom line? we are going to enforce immigration law, protect the american people. donald trump promised to do that. i believe t

you worked a lot on immigration reform, immigration policy, your thoughts? immigration is a very complicated issue and i think what makes president trump very good at contemporary politics is that he floods the zone. he is doing some things that are most certainly going to be defeated in the courts. he's doing other things. he's giving orders to the homeland security department that will definitely happen. he is throwing dozens of actions out there. some will succeed under his terms. they may not be the values i hold, but he will make some changes that will definitely happen. some things may not, other things will definitely not, but he is going to create a perception of activities at the contracts with president by new strong, you want to present in biden's power sees more would have been popular, people understood, dance, and were effective. no one knew about them because he couldn't communicate. trump communicate a lot, there's an enormous communications contrast, and i think that will determine how people view as policies. you said some of it will be def

that's not unique to immigration. but let me just address this particular issue, margaret, because as a practicing catholic, i was heart broken by that statement. i think the u.s. conference of catholic bishops needs to look in the mirror a little bit and recognize when they receive of $100 million to resettle illegal immigrants, are they actually worried about their bottom line? we're going to enforce immigration law, protect the american people. donald trump promised to do that, and i believe the u.s. conference of catholic bishops, if they're worried about the humanitarian cost of immigration enforcement, let them talk about the children who have been sex trafficked because of the wide open border of joe biden. let them talk about laken riley who were brutally murdered. let me ask this question, separate the immigration issue. if you had a violent murderer in a school, of course i want law enforcement to get that person out. >> of course. >> so what's the point of the question? >> you changed the regulation this we

so, immigration is personal to me. i'm proud of my immigrant roots. on my father's side, the opposite is true. family dates back to before the revolutionary war. but that is not unusual in america. we are a gathering of families with many different backgrounds. but immigration is a central part of who we are as americans. and the question, of course, before us is, what are we going to do about problems in immigration? i can tell you the problems predated joe biden, predated my arrival in congress, and go back many other years. if you look at the history of immigration in this country, it is a mixed review. there are times when we embraced immigrants to build tr transnational railroad lines and the like, and times when we shunned them, said they were not welcome in this country. it moves back and forth. we're now at a period everyone knows, where immigration at our borders is a central issue raised in the last presidential campaign, and certainly on the minds of many voters. i was fortunate enough a few years ago, just 2013, to join what was known as t

immigrants have those as well. so it's important that, you know that and i know easier said than done. if you're facing this imminent situation with somebody who have the uniform, who is the official, but stay calm, don't resist, but don't lie about your status. just i think that's the key. knowing those rights that you have that recourse, i think will be the best way to defend yourself and your rights. >> i would imagine that there's probably a lot of fear in the immigrant community right now. >> most definitely. i hope that through these conversations, we can help dispel that there is no recourse. don't have rights. another important thing that i think is not commonly mentioned is that in the situations i have been made privy 2 recent call to clients that sometimes excessive force can be user is used, which is not legal. so, for example, if you are, you have excessive force when you are cooperating otherwise, but still asserting your rights facing violence. these can be grounds for separate civil lawsuit. and if
