I agreed to do that. with the exception of a sunset provision which we debated very swiftly in committee. and on a partyline vote the Republicans voted not to sunset this legislation. But I agreed to hold off. What I came up with were four amendments that I thought were important. I had a call from my good friend. the majority whip. He said. "Senator. cant you try to cut down your four amendments to two amendments?" I said. Leek. I think all four of my amendments are important. They protect the children. the elderly. they deal with benefits. and they deal with illegal immigration. But. I said. lot me see if I can do it.
