Speech #970274748

I have already indicated how much I am proud of them and of the work they put in. but I am disappointed In the games that have been played. In the fact that many Members tonight were disgusted. On the vote on going into committee they voted not against the immigration bill. not against the cause that we are here for. but against the staying around in what appears to them to be a futile gesture to try to get a bill up that is so important and to debate it at the 11th hour at night. I do not like doing any of that either. but I do believe that we need the opportunity to air this. It is such an important issue.
