Speech #1040267256

Mr. Speaker. we have here Congress and American politics at its absolute worse. We have a very important issue. illegal immigration. I worked for a very long time in a bipartisan way with departing Senator AL SnipSON. .whose departure I regret now even more than before. and others. in 1986 and in 1990 to fashion legislation in a bipartisan way to deal with this problem. Bipartisan. because this is not and ought not be an ideological issue. Some issues are legitimately partisan. I was sorry to here hear the chairman of the Committee on the Judiciary defend the shabbiest legislative procedure I have ever seen here.
