He and I have worked on a number of issues over the years and we have a close relationship. but I might add the issue I will be talking about today is a bipartisan issue that crosses both sides of the aisle. I had been planning to oppose this rule. I had been planning to stand up today and ask my colleagues to join me in opposing this continuing resolution because it included in it a provision which would grant amnesty to 500.000 to 1 million illegal aliens who are currently residing in the United States of America. That issue is a significant issue. It is something that I did not receive an agreement on until just a few moments ago. that there would be an up and down vote other than on this rule.
