Speech #1100068925

So for hours I sat here as manager of the bill doing nothing. That is why we have utilized the unusual procedure we have today. Some are complaining that they have not had an opportunity to offer amendments but. candidly. it is their own fault. When they had a chance to do so. they didnt. Beyond that. they stopped others from offering amendments. We have the advocates for the immigrants. They have a very strong case. What this bill started out to do was to deal with the 12 million people who are socalled "living in the shadows" in fear.
