The chair recognizes Senator Blanco to speak on final passage of Senate Bill 4. Thank you, Mr. President. Members, I rise to speak against Senate Bill 4. Members, we know why we're here. The federal government is not doing its job [on the border] for enforcement or providing an orderly, humane and modern policy. Policy that's true to our values, policy that's true to our heritage, and frankly, policy that's needed for our economy. We know that. We know they're not doing their job. (00:24–00:37)
