Mr. Speaker. I would simply like to make one point. and that is immigration reform is easy to kill. hard to keep alive. It will be very easy to vote "no" on a whole number of measures today and end our last chance to get fair. humane. decent. and real immigration reform. We can kill it one way. we can kill it another way. and we can kill it a third way. But what I have seen in the last 2 weeks has been nothing short of utterly remarkable. I have seen people on both sides of the aisle. people from different parts of the country. people of different ideologies. age groups. and persuasions. pulling together because they did not want to let this bill die.
