I think this bill has been improved substantially since it came to the floor. We have actually gone through a legislative process for once around here. For the first time in a long time. we are actually legislating. This bill has been improved as a result. The provisions to strengthen and protect the border have been dramatically improved. The credibility of the plan to deal with the 11 million or 12 million illegal immigrants that are already here has been substantially improved. This bill is still very imperfect. I want to conclude by saying that the Senator from New Mexico is I think casting a lifeline out to sponsors of this bill.
