As Members will recall. it was one leg of a threelegged stool. so to speak. on deficit reduction. and all of the Members have contributed in fine fashion. Mr. Speaker. I guess something or nothing. by way of deficit reduction. is the big question before us today. Just last week. Mr. Speaker. we had an immigration bill on the floor which passed by a very narrow margin. It passed by a narrow margin because many Members had problems with individual provisions of the bill. but there was recognition of the fact that reform was needed and could not be put off any longer. I think we have somewhat of a similar kind of situation here today.
