Speech #1140064106

So we are here with a bill that my friends say is so important that there could be no hearings and no markup on. a bill that is so important that there could be no consultation on. a bill that is so important that nobody can offer an amendment on. and we have a bill that is coming before us in an absolutely closed process. Let me just close by expressing my deep frustration with this place and how it is being run. For some time now. I have watched as my Republican friends have regularly turned their backs on the most vulnerable populations. There is no more vulnerable populationno more vulnerable group of people on this planetthan refugees fleeing godawful war and terror. Yet. today. they are being thrown under the bus for political gain. They are being demonized.
