Speech #1040203072

I know that the people who are here today arguing that these issues be maintained separately. approved and signed off and said they were fully supportive of having that bill come to the floor. It was my understanding that the Senator from Wyoming had opposed that. and so I am a little bit uncertain right now exactly what did happen a couple of weeks ago. But I would just reiterate. from my point of view. our sincerity. and I guess my understanding was that a proposal to bring the legal bill to the floor had been rejected by the chairman of the Immigration Subcommittee. Maybe I got the wrong story. but it is my understanding that offer was already extended and rejected. That is why. instead. we are here today trying to merge these issues. notwithstanding the fact that the House sought to split them. notwithstanding the fact that the Senate Judiciary Committee sought to split them.
