Then the majority leader. Bill Frist. gave them a deadline: You have to finish this bill. as I recall it. by next Monday. If you dont bring up the bill out of the committee next Monday. I am going to offer on the floor of the Senate a tough law enforcement bill that will focus on border security. This was supposed to be an incentive for the committee to act. Apparently. it worked. because a bill passed out of committee. worse by far than the bill Senator SPECTER had introduced. and here it was on the floor and hardly had been written.
