Whatever we do. it is critical that we consider and pass a clean Department of Homeland Security funding bill first. At this point. every hour that goes by without one creates more uncertainty and more waste. After we do that. lets roll up our sleeves and lets get back to work on a thoughtful. 21st century immigration reform policy for our country. a policy that is fair. a policy that will significantly reduce our Nations budget deficit. and a policy that will strengthen the economic recovery now underway. I want to thank my friend from Iowa for the kindness in allowing me to proceed for an extra few minutes. I yield the floor.
