This is not a compromise. This is a "gotcha" legislation or rule. This is to say we do not care that this rule goes forward. We are going to satisfy those on that side of the aisle. We are not going to be responsive to people who have toiled in this land. 40.000 Haitian refugees are made a pawn. Children who need child care made a pawn. women who need prescriptive drugs are made a pawn. Do not fool me with this calm talk about we tried to compromise. This is a "gotcha" game of politics. I will not tolerate it.
