Speech #1040203135

I agree with the comments of the Senators from Massachusetts. Michigan. and Ohio. We just had an overwhelming vote. that I think in large part reflected the will of this body. that the legal and illegal immigration issues have to be kept separate. I am sure there were a variety of concerns. as well. about the specifics of the previous amendment. But the overwhelming sentiment. I think. is that these issues have to be kept separate. As indicated in the comments during that debate. that last vote was the vote on whether or not we should take up the legal immigration issues in this bill or not. The vote was very overwhelming. The Senator from Massachusetts suggests that this amendment might be referred to as Simpsonlike.
