They had people from labor. they had people from management. they had people from academia. they had people from the political field here in the House and in the Senate. and people from the Cabinet.

I came to the House 4 years ago adamantly opposed to any type of legalization because I felt that those people who had broken the law ought not to be able to gain something by virtue of the fact that they broke the law.
