We need a temporary worker program that. going forward. provides for our economic basis. I hope we can have a freestanding bill that will be amendable so that we can do that part of comprehensive reform. I believe 90 percent of the people in this body want border security. which we may be able to achieve tonight. and the majority leader and the minority leader have begun to get an agreement on that issue. Plus. I believe there is 90 percent agreement on a temporary worker program and taking care of the agricultural businesses. I hope those who are saying immigration reform Is dead are wrong in that we can do certain parts of it where there is an overwhelming consensus in this body. I thank the Senator from California for bringing this issue up and sticking to it.
