              GIVING AMNESTY TO MILLIONS OF ILLEGAL ALIENS

  (Mr. GROTHMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. GROTHMAN. Madam Speaker, I would like to address the Build Back 
Better bill. Earlier this week the Border Patrol announced that they 
had found 557 bodies of people who were trying to get into this country 
last year. That is more than double what it was a year ago.
  I am shocked that after finding all these bodies, either dehydrating 
in the heat, drowning in the Rio Grande, or falling off the 30-foot 
high fence, that they still are doing all they can to cause illegal 
immigration in this country.
  In particular, in this bill, you are still trying to give amnesty to 
millions of people, which acts as a magnet for people to come here. You 
are still trying to give free college tuition to people who come in 
this country illegally, while the middle class in this country--who you 
apparently don't care for--goes tens of thousands of dollars in debt to 
get that degree.
  This is happening all at the time that President Biden is apparently 
negotiating giving families, who try to come here illegally, $450,000.
  Please, majority party, give up on this horrible Build Back Better 
bill, which is just one more effort to transform and change America.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mrs. Watson Coleman). Members are reminded 
to direct their remarks to the Chair.
