Mr. Speaker. America needs comprehensive immigration reform. I think every American who is paying any attention agrees we need comprehensive immigration reform. Everybody in this peoples House. Democrats. Republicans. and even the Independent. understands that we need comprehensive immigration reform. and every Member of the other body. every Republican. every Democrat. and their Independent. understands that America needs comprehensive immigration reform. Now every Member of this body. Republican and Democrat and Independent. every Member understands that in order to get a reform bill passed and signed by the President. that one has to have a single piece of legislation that is agreed to by both of the bodies. So everyone knows that for immigration reform of a comprehensive form to become law. that that must pass both bodies in exactly the same form and be signed by the President or passed over with the Presidents veto. Now. the process of doing that is not understood by everybody in this country. but in general form much of the country understands that. And I am not sure whether the majority party here believes that people in this country are not knowledgeable. ignorant of those processes. so much that they think that this kind of a sham that we are going through can be carried out.
