                         WE MUST CHOOSE BETTER

  (Ms. STANSBURY asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. STANSBURY. Mr. Speaker, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, Joan Sebastian 
Guerrero, Ruben Ray Martinez, Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and dozens of 
others are now dead at the hands of ICE, this administration, and 
detention centers across the country. Fathers, brothers, sons, 
daughters--dozens who have lost their lives, stolen from them at the 
hands of our government and the choices of this body, the choices of a 
House that has enabled a President to spend billions of dollars on 
funding ICE, choices of this body to not stop a President from breaking 
the law, and choices of this body for failing to act.
  Mr. Speaker, it is time to act and for this body to do its job and 
shut it down.
