Speech #570091566

I venture to say that no Senator has read this bill. certainly not until it was taken up. and if since. only in the most cursory manner. and no Senator is prepared to vote on the amendments. Some of them are extremely important. and we ought to have a little time to consider this matter before it is taken up and we are asked to vote upon these amendments. I do not know any reason why we should be hurried in this way with the pending bill. I believe every Senator desires to improve our immigration laws. so far as they can be improved. but every Senator ought to know just what we are doing and he ought to have the opportunity to know it.
