I would prefer not to yield. I have not made a speech on immigration for 5 or 6 years. I know I am right in these matters. We have been permitting the consideration of these private bills in spite of our own conviction to the effect that it is a wrong procedure. Here we are today being chastised by the President for passing a bill that not one single Member will champion. How did it pass? Who is responsible for it? Nobody knows. Nobody remembers ever having voted for it. Nobody will admit that he voted for it. That proves conclusively that we should stop considering these special bills.
