House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) spoke for more than eight hours on the floor of the House of Representatives on Wednesday, using her prerogative as a party leader to mount a filibuster to draw attention to the cause of illegal aliens.
The House, unlike the Senate, does not actually have a filibuster rule that allows members to speak as long as they want. Only the Speaker of the House and the party leaders can hold the floor indefinitely.
Pelosi said she was taking a stand to draw attention to the plight of the so-called Dreamers, who are illegal aliens brought into the country as minors.
During her remarks, she hailed the Dreamers, whom she said had arrived in the country illegally through no fault of their own.

What puzzles me is that America is so hated around the world that everyone wants to come here.

Why haven’t we ever seen Pelosi standing up and shooting off her big mouth for eight hours to help the AMERICAN people? She only does that for foreign nationals.

...she hailed the Dreamers, whom she said had arrived in the country illegally through no fault of their own. So their biological parental unit brought these future "valedictorians" here against their will? Isn't that a crime?

Given that ‘Dreamers’ cant know what the future will bring to them and worry every day that they might be deported Pelosi’s thanks to those who put them in this situation is pretty dumb.

RE:”
House minority leader or not - how is this carrying out her oath of office? Can't the House censure her, or just flat shut her up?” Pelosi might be House Speaker again next year.

Any Constitutional attorneys out there: I have searched the web to figure out what the US Constitution states who the House of Representatives are to be "representing:, and come up empty handed. Is it just assumed that "we the people" are legal US citizens?

Anyone who supports amnesty for felons should be fired. Those who protect illegals should be arrested (Rule of Law) ... including California Governor Jerry Brown.
