If we proceed down this road. this Congress will forever be remembered not for defending the rule of law. but for defiling our Constitution. I ask you to look around and consider the weight of history all of us in this Chamber bear. Before you degrade the worlds greatest democracy. I ask you. I implore you. to please change your course. About 2 years ago. I walked into this chamber with awe. As the son of an immigrant. I was raised to believe in the majesty of our democracy. And this is the citadel of that democracy. I reflected on the brilliant. courageous leaders who crafted our constitution. and those who followed them. here in this Chambermen and women of vision and judgment who have guided our Republic through good times and bad. informed by the precepts of our Founding Fathers.
