                  WAKE-UP CALL FOR IMMIGRATION REFORM

  (Mr. CORREA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CORREA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to once again stress the need 
for immigration reform in this country.
  Just last week, back home, one of my taxpaying constituents, Narciso 
Barranco, was picked up by who I believe were ICE agents--they were 
masked--and is now sitting in an ICE holding facility in Los Angeles. 
Videos show him being punched by masked Federal agents, unprovoked.
  Narciso Barranco has lived in my district for 25 years or more and 
doesn't have a traffic ticket to his name. More importantly, he has 
three sons--three sons--all serving in the U.S. Marine Corps.
  Mr. Speaker, we make movies about families like this. He has three 
sons who are ready to make the ultimate sacrifice for this great 
Nation, and, instead, he is being held in custody in an ICE facility in 
Los Angeles.
  Our Federal agents should be taking criminals off of our streets, not 
gentlemen like this.
  I pray that Mr. Barranco's case is a wake-up call for all of us for 
immigration reform.
