CENSURING ANTI-IMMIGRANT SENTIMENT
(Mr. THANEDAR asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. THANEDAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor immigrants.
Throughout American history, immigrants of all kinds have made our
country great. Sergey Brin invented Google, and Madeleine Albright
blazed trails as the first female Secretary of State.
Instead of celebrating this diversity, many Republicans want to shame
immigrants. On Tuesday, Zohran Mamdani, an immigrant from Uganda, won
the New York mayoral primary. Representative Andy Ogles promptly went
on an unhinged, anti-immigrant, racist rant throughout yesterday and
today, calling this freely elected man and U.S. citizen ``Little
Muhammad'' and called for revoking his citizenship and for him to be
deported with no just cause.
We must always condemn hate. I have introduced a censure resolution,
H. Res. 553, against Andy Ogles for his horrific anti-immigrant
sentiment. Immigrants make our country great.
