Everyone who discusses it mentions his efforts and the appreciation they feel for him. I have worked closely with him on this bill for more than 5 years. and I can tell you that these accolades for Senator SIMPSON are truly well deserved. Immigration is one of the toughest issues Congress has dealt with in recent decades. We have had to counteract the efforts of 30 years of inaction in moving this bill forward. I know of no one who could have handled the sensitive and difficult job in a more evenhanded and courageous manner. Every person in this country whether citizen. permanent resident. or illegal alien owes Senator SIMPSON a great debt. In addition. I would like to thank the senior Senator from Massachusetts.
