Speech #1090167141

We have passed but one appropriations bill. and we are required by law to pass 13. We have yet to reconcile and enact lobbying reform and ethics legislation. We have yet to deal with the skyrocketing cost of gasoline and health care. We have yet to reconcile and enact a bipartisan and comprehensive immigration reform bill. And the press reports today that the Republican leadership has decided they will not do that. And for the second year in a row. the Republicanled Senate will not even take up the annual intelligence authorization bill so we could vote up or down. even though they have a majority in their own party here.
