It would be a mistake. and a mistake made out of haste. We should not indulge the desire to pass this legislation. no matter how sincere it is. in haste and without the kind of calm deliberation that will allow the Members of the Senate to understand what they are voting on and what we are doing. We should not jeopardize passing the Defense authorization bill. which contains the essential protections and benefits for our military members by loading It down with this extraneous amendment. or as the Senator from Illinois said. he wants to add an amendment relating to immigration. We know that will only spawn other amendments and burden this bill down so It will never pass. That would be a travesty.
