Speech #1100067483

I will try to summarize It and go right to the point. Senator REID. the President. the Presidents Cabinet members. leaders of the coalition. this grand bargain groupI call them affectionately the masters of the universethey all tell us this bill is going to fix illegality. and if we dont vote for this legislation. somehow legality will not happen. A group of us have written to the President asking him to utilize 13 special powers he already has under law that will dramatically reduce illegality in immigration. We have not heard from him. We could do additional legislation that would help enforcement. I believe that is so. But the bill will not stop illegal immigration and. in fact. according to the Congressional Budget Office. June 4. they rendered their report and they concluded that instead of 10 million people coming into the country Illegally as they project under current law. 8.7 million people would be entering our country illegally. What kind of legislation is this?
