HowARD BEMAN. the gentleman from Wyoming. Senator SIMPSON. and the gentleman from Massachusetts. Senator KENNEDY. on the immigration bill. The White House has indicated that they are not willing to accept title V. even within the context of the negotiated revisions offered by that working group. This has been a very disappointing turn of events for all of us. Perhaps Senator SIMPSON has expressed his disappointment in the most sincere terms. This. obviously. means that we will spend more time on that since the White House wishes to connect the immigration bill with the continuing resolution and is not prepared to agree on the continuing resolution until we reach some agreement on the immigration bill. All this. obviously. leaves things a bit more tenuous. but still I remain confident and hopeful that we will be able to pick up our work tomorrow morning as scheduled and move on with it. hopefully for a fairly early afternoon adjournment.
