I look forward to working with my colleague from Pennsylvania on that sound bipartisan policy he is talking about. and I want to talk a little bit about that today. He mentioned Senator Vandenberg. who famously said that partisanship ends at the waters edge. I think he would have been surprised by President Obamas comments beyond the waters edge in Turkey yesterday. where he attacked Republicans who dared to talk about the need for us to ensure that we know who is coming to our shores and specifically with regard to refugees and having a proper vetting process in place. In fact. the House of Representativeswith over 40 votes from DemocratsI understand just voted on legislation today. which is a vetoproof majority. to say we ought to tighten requirements for people who want to come to our shores. So we do need to work together.
