I think that the thing those of us who have worked with SAM during this time appreciate the most is his commonsense ability to get to the heart of an issue. and to deal with it. SAM will be remembered as one tough Texan who never shied away from a fight over those things he held to be most dear. While I can attest that service on the Immigration Subcommittee is often a seemingly thankless and endless job. it is one that SAM pursued with great skill and a vigor second to none. While his input will be deeply missed. his contribution to the debate over U.S. immigration policy will transcend his absence. I might also mention that SAM and I served together on the Criminal Justice Subcommittee when It was headed by our former colleague. Father Drinan of Massachusetts. who was a true taskmaster.
