Speech #1090085760

I fought tooth and nail to make sure it was off the table and I. along with others. succeeded in stopping it. This brings us to the current Judiciary title. I do not think we should have used a reconciliation measure to alter immigration policy. particularly in light of the current debate on comprehensive immigration reform. For this. and other reasons. I offered an amendment that would have imposed a 5 percent increase in all immigration related fees instead of simply allowing more people into the country as a way of reducing our Nations deficit. Unfortunately. my amendment was defeated in committee. That being said.
