They do not do it. They are not going to do it. Who are you trying to kid? Who is the Senator from North Dakota trying to fool? These are the realities. the economic realities. No one has fought for increasing the minimum wage more than I have. But you have got realties that employers are not going to pay it. They are going to exploit people if you can get them here undocumented. So that is the issue. Mr. President. I believe we have a reasonable program that makes sense. I think it makes sense from a law enforcement point of view.
