We would like to get a bill. We would like to have debate and vote on amendments and vote on a bill. Most of us in this body want comprehensive immigration reform. The reason I engaged in the colloquy with the Senator from Massachusetts is because we have two competing versions. His version passed in the Judiciary Committee. mine did not. Both are comprehensive. They both deal with border security. with security in the entire area of the country. including at the workplace with a temporary work program and with providing a new status for the people who are here illegally. They do that in different ways. but they both tackle the same comprehensive issue. It is a straw man that anybody on this side doesnt want a bill.
