Mr. Speaker. why have you unilaterally decided to prevent this body from carrying out its duty to the American people? Your assertion that the President planned to veto the bill for political gain rings hollow. It ascribes to the President a cynicism that we have seen so far only in your own actions. Mr. Speaker. you must allow this House to debate the immigration reform bill. We are not here in a strictly ceremonial capacity. We are here to solve real problems. We are not here to avoid controversy. We have been sent here to build a consensus out of controversy.
