A verbal spat between California's Nancy Pelosi and Pennsylvania's Tom Marino took place last week when Pelosi was infuriated that Marino called into question the Democrat's handling of the immigration crisis.

"You know something that I find quite interesting about the other side?" Marino, a Republican, said on the House floor on Friday, according to Politico.com. "Under the leadership of the former speaker [Pelosi], and under the leadership of the former leader [Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.)], when in 2009 and 2010, they had the House, the Senate and the White House, and they knew this problem existed ... they didn't have the strength to go after [immigration] back then," the website reported Marino saying.

Pelosi became upset about the comments, chasing Marino around the House floor while crying out, "Where is he?" Her actions even caused fellow Democrat Rep. Nita Lowey to ask incredulously, "What is she doing?" reported the Tea Party News Network.

As Al.com reported on the incident, "Pelosi was then seen crossing the chamber pointing her finger at Marino. According to Marino, she followed him up the Republican aisle and told him he was "an insignificant person."

"Pelosi, (D-Calif.), the House Minority Leader, could be heard challenging Marino without being recognized to speak by the chairman," the news site said.

The Congresswoman's office issued a statement that included her floor speech regarding Republicans not working on a bipartisan answer to the immigration crisis:

"The time is late. The cause is great. We must have clarity in how we understand what is before us. Today we had an opportunity to work together to address the humanitarian emergency at the border. Instead, it is a day of missed opportunity. The Republican leadership has rejected our hand of friendship to compromise on this supplemental. Instead of bringing legislation forward that could solve this problem really and truly, it has resisted the appeals of humanitarian and religious leaders across all faiths.

"Evangelical Immigration Table calls on us to ensure that our response 'strengthens our country's tradition on providing safety and refuge to the vulnerable.' This legislation we have before us does not do that. It is wrong. But don't take my word for it. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops urges Members to oppose H.R. 5230, and work together to craft legislation 'that is more befitting the United States of America and the American people's history of compassion and generosity to vulnerable children and refugees.'

The Archbishop of Miami, Thomas Wenski, has specifically said of the two pieces of legislation before us: "This is a sad day for our country. A chamber of Congress is poised to send vulnerable children back to danger and possible death. It violates our commitment to human rights and due process of the law and lessens us as a nation."
