I wish to vote for a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution. But I will not vote to repeal the firewall that we have in the law for the Social Security trust fund. Let us have really truth in budgeting. I commend the distinguished Senator from North Dakota in bringing his amendment up in this particular fashion. It is unfortunate that we had no other option. We are not trying to delay the immigration bill. I commend the Senator from Wyoming and the Senator from Massachusetts on their leadership on immigration. I am ready to vote for their bill. We are ready to agree to a time agreement.
