I wish one Republican would stand upjust oneand say they agree that we should not have such religious and ethnic slurs on Members of the Senate just because of disagreement with a position they have taken on the bill. Regrettably. no one did. It is beneath the dignity and honor of this great body and beneath the dignity and honor of any Member of the body. I. again. thank Senator SALAZAR. Senator MENENDEZ. Senator OBAMA. and Senator MARTINEZ for their support of the committee bill and their participation in this debate. The SpecterLeahyHagel substitute amendment that mirrors the Judiciary Committee bill confronts the challenging problem of how to fix our broken immigration system head on. It is strong on enforcementrstronger than the majority leaders bill. In some ways it is stronger than the bill passed by the House.
