                  STOPPING THE INVASION AT OUR BORDER

  (Mr. GOHMERT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. GOHMERT. Madam Speaker, this past week, we were privileged to 
have been invited by our Speaker, those of us who have been in the 
military, served our country in the military, to go with her to the 
75th anniversary of Normandy. It was deeply moving. And to be on those 
beaches and to see and know the sacrifices that occurred there, we 
talked in terms of it being an invasion over and over.
  Now I get back to Texas and I found out, last month, about the same 
number, about 144,000 invaded France, is what we had last month here in 
America--just right here, even, in Texas. We are being invaded by 
people who do not know how to preserve a self-government.
  Ben Franklin said: It is a Republic, madam, if you can keep it.
  If we don't stop the invasion, we will not keep it.
