It is a disservice to the people who are going in those hospitals along the borders in the border States. who have to wait hours. sometimes several hours. maybe even a whole day. because these waiting rooms are crowded with people who have come illegally across the border over the preceding days. But we will have to see how the vote goes tomorrow morning. If cloture is not invokedand I dont see how it can be. the way the process has proceededwe will have a cloture vote on a strong border security bill. a bill that does deserve to be passed. If we cannot pass the comprehensive bill. because of obstruction. we will have the opportunity after that to vote on a strong border security bill that also has interior enforcement and worksite enforcement tomorrow morning as well. I do hope we can turn the corner here at some point and address these problems which do affect the American people. We have to stay above partisanship.
