More than 300 amendments were filed to this bills predecessor. S. 1348. and almost 150 amendments have been filed to S. 1639. However. we were only allowed to consider 26 amendments to S. 1639. Border security and immigration reform are the most important domestic issues facing the United States today. Clearly the Senate. the most deliberative body in the world. should be allowed to consider additional amendments that could improve upon this bill. While one of my amendments is part of the package of amendments that was allowed to be considered to this bill. I bad other good ideas to make this bill better for New Mexico. the southwest border. and the United States.
