SENATOR PADILLA HAND CUFFED

WAS THIS THE SAME GOP MEMBER THAT SAID HE DID NOT THINK THAT HIS PARENTS SHOULD BE FORCED TO LEARN ENGLISH JUST TO BECOME LEGAL CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES? IN ABOUT 2020 OR 2021 THERE WAS A GOP MEMBER WHO BECAME LOUD AND EMOTIONAL DURING A SESSION OF CONGRESS YELLING THAT HIS PARENTS SHOULD NOT BE REQUIRED TO LEARN ENGLISH TO BECOME LEGAL CITIZENS. I CAN NOT BE SURE IF IT WAS HIM. I BELIEVE IT WAS A REPRESENTIVE NOT A SENATOR HE WAS THE SAME REP THAT WAS INTERVIEWED GOING INTO A CLOSED DOOR SESSION OF CONGRESS WITH JAMES COMEY. THAT REPRESENTATIVE LOOKS LIKE COOKIE. SO I NEEDED TO SPEAK ABOUT THE FACT THAT THE GOP MEMBER IS HURTING HIS PARENTS: WHEN WE LEARN A NEW LANUAGE OR LEARN AN INSTRUMENT WE REDUCE THE LIKELYHOOD OF ALZHEIMERS BY 60 PERCENT. SO TO DEMAND THAT YOUR PARENTS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO LEARN ENGLISH IS BAD FOR THEIR HEALTH. IF YOUR PARENTS HAVE A COMMUNICATION BARRIER THEN THEY HAVE TO GET A TRANSLATER EVERYWHERE THEY GO. THIS IS BURDEN ON THE OFFICES THEY VISIT AND IT IS A BURDEN ON THEM. THIS WILL EFFECT THEIR SELF ESTEEM AND SELF WORTH. THEY WILL BE AMONG PEOPLE THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND IF THEY ARE HAVING A BAD DAY THEY MIGHT THINK PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT THEM AND MAYBE BEING NEGATIVE ABOUT THEM, THEY WON'T KNOW FOR SURE IF THEY DON'T KNOW THE LANUAGE. THIS TOO WILL EFFECT THEIR SELF WORTH. IMAGINE IF YOUR PARENTS WANT TO DRIVE AND THEY DON'T WANT TO WALK EVERYWHERE OR RELY ON OTHERS TO DRIVE THEM, THEY CAN'T TAKE THE DRIVING TEST. LET'S SAY FOR THE SAKE OF EXAMPLES YOUR PARENTS DECIDE THEY ARE GOING TO DRIVE ANYWAY AND THEY CAN'T READ THE SIGNS THEY MIGHT GET IN AN ACCIDENT. YOU DID THAT TO THEM BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO KEEP THEM DOWN TO KEEP THEM IGNORANT. DO YOU KNOW WHAT A RUNNER'S HIGH IS? THIS IS THE NATURAL HIGH THAT WE EXPERIENCE WHEN WE FINISH A RUN IT IS DOPAMINE AND NOREPIEPHRINE INCREASES IN OUR BODY. NOW OF COURSE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY CAUSES THIS BUT SO DOES A GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT LIKE LEARING A NEW LANUAGE. WHEN I GRADUATED I HAD THAT HIGH. I FELT LIKE I COULD CLIMB A MOUNTAIN. DON'T YOU WANT TO EMPOWER PARENTS LIKE THAT. THAT CREATES SELF WORTH AND SELF LOVE. THAT EMPOWERS THEM AND THAT MAKES THEM KNOW THEY CAN DO ANYTHING IF THEY SET THEIR MIND TO IT. WHY WOULD YOU TAKE THIS AWAY FROM THEM. WHY DO YOU ARGUE THEIR LIMITATIONS IN A SESSION OF CONGRESS WHY ARE YOU HOLDING THEM BACK??? THAT IS NOT LOVE THAT IS USING YOUR PARENTS AS LEVERAGE TO ARGUE SOMETHING YOU SHOULD NOT AGRUE AT ALL. WHEN WE HAVE THIS LANUAGE BARRIER IN AMERICA WE COUNTRY DEVIDED AND THIS WILL CREATE ADIMOSITY THIS WILL CREATE DISTAIN THIS WILL CAUSE THE REFUGEES TO FEEL LESS THAN AND THAT HATERED FOR WHITE PEOPLE WILL GROW AND IT WILL FESTER WITHIN. WE DID NOT CAUSE THE PROBLEM, EVENTUALLY IT WILL LEAD TO CRIMES OF HATE. THEY MIGHT EVEN PICK ARMS AGAINST US BECAUSE OF THE BARRIER IN COMMUNICATION. WHEN PEOPLE ARE NOT WELL ADJUSTED THEY DO RADICAL THINGS. WE ARE CREATING A CIVIL WAR WHEN WE CLAIM THEY NEED TO STAY DOWN.
