             NO AMNESTY OR BENEFITS FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

  (Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas. Mr. Speaker, this summer's crisis on the 
border was the result of President Obama's 2012 decision to grant 
amnesty to some illegal immigrants. Now, the President is planning to 
grant amnesty to every illegal in the country--almost--millions more. 
To make matters worse, these illegal immigrants may also become 
eligible for government benefits. That is just wrong.
  What the President is doing is illegal. Hardworking American 
taxpayers didn't sign up to foot the bill for unlawful, illegal 
immigrants.
  Mr. Speaker, the President is ignoring the American people, our 
Constitution, and our way of government. America is a country of laws, 
not men. My constituents are outraged at the President's imperial 
actions. American people want, need, and deserve a President who 
respects and follows the Constitution.
  On behalf of my outraged constituents, I am fully committed to 
stopping this illegal action.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair will remind Members to refrain 
from engaging in personalities toward the President.
