Speech #910311038

I sincerely believe that this body is fully capable of determining whether a bill sets some sanctimonious and unbreakable precedent. I am confident that we can look at a claim. can analyze the hearings and report. can weigh the debate. and can decide on the merits of the individual claim. We do it daily on special claims and immigration bills. And we certainly do it on major pieces of legislation. To vote against the amendment to the Senate substitute bill for fear of setting a precedent that may be blindly followed later is to abdicate our function and responsibility to look at each bill on its own merits. important in and of itself.
