Speech #1130119385

I doubt before this Congress expires will we see a bill scheduled. Lets just look at the record. Republicans said we cant do immigration unless it is done piecemeal. we cant do immigration unless people are denied citizenship. or. we need more border security spending. we need a parole officer assigned to each immigrant who gets to stay and work. And every Democrat. from the President of the United States on down. all the way to me. said. "Yes. yes. and yes. Compromise and progress are more important than gridlock and making every Democratic constituency happy." Governing means when Democrats say "yes" to Republican demands.
