Speech #820210039

Yet. the bill to which we are objecting has 302 pages. 13 chapters. 142 sections. 340 subsections. and 547 paragraphs. Each one of those paragraphs. with innumerable subparagraphs. affect the very lives of hundreds of thousands and even millions of people in this country and abroad. They affect our entire foreign policy. They affect our civil liberties. They affect our whole concept of immigration practice and law. Is it a filibuster to wish to debate and discuss these sections and paragraphs in detail? To wish to explain to the Senate and to the country the meaning and significance of this most intricate piece of legislation to come before the Senate this session?
