This is truly an extraordinary parliamentary procedure. Its only purpose is to avoid a vote on the minimum wage. The result is to delay the passage of the illegal Immigration bill. This is a matter of great importance to many of those who have spoken eloquently and passionately about trying to deal with the problems of illegal immigration. I have supported the essential aspects of the bill. the enhancements of our Border Patrol and putting in place the tamperfree cards that have been the subject of so much abuse. I worked with Senator SIMPSON on that issue. I know we will have a chance to revisit that because there will be those who will try to strike those provisions later on.
