ms. chu: last month the senate passed historic comprehensive immigration reform and now is the time for the house to act. it is because of our family values that we cannot wait another year, another month, or another day to finally fix our broken immigration system. we must pass a bill that keeps families together and we must do the right thing, the humane thing, and bring 11 million immigrants out of the shadows and into society. we must ensure that all who want to call this country home have a fair and reasonable road map to do so. i urge the republican leadership not to choose the partisan path. instead, we should come together and pass bipartisan comprehensive legislation that will fix our immigration system and finally revitalize the american dream. the time to act is now. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman rom michigan seek recognition? without objection, the gentleman from michigan is recognized. >> thank you, mr. speaker. i rise today to celebrate something.

i'm hop nored to yield two minutes to the gentlewoman from california, ms. chu. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady is recognized for two minutes. s. chu: i rise in strong opposition to the rule and to h.r. 5. this bill radically reduces the role of the federal government in education at a time when we need to revitalize our education system. it slashes over $1 billion in funding to teach our kids. it eliminates accountability in our education system that ep sures students graduate from high school and those with special needs don't get left behind. i am particularly concerned about the impact this bill will have on community services that benefit the students struggling the most. studies show that when we don't address students' social and economic disadvantages at school well, undo the work that's aghiveed having good schools and teachers with adequate resources. an astounding 2/3 of the achievement gap is due to factors outside of school. children are more likely to succeed in schools when they're -- when their comprehensive needs, nutrition, health, and a

ms. chu: since 1974, over 1,200 communs relied on cdbg funds to support development projects and make other important improvements. these funds are used in providing social services for the poor and senior citizens, improving dilapidated housing facilities, supporting local food banks and maintaining local parks. cdbg funds are critical investments made by the federal government to bring benefits to local communities. my district, for example, stands to lose almost $2.2 million next year if the cuts go into effect. that's nearly half of what they got last year. and it's on top of hundreds of thousands of cities in my district that have already lost due to the poorly designed automatic cuts known as sequestration. the city of pasadena will see their funding drop from $1.7 billion to under $1 million. the city of alhambra will see funding drop from $800,000 to $430,000. these cuts are more than lines on a piece of paper. they will have real impacts on my neighbors and my community. take people
