Speech #1140105419

We did that last week. truly in a bipartisan way. The Republican leader said this morning we need to keep our focus on serious issues. but then he comes to us with four bills that he requests we take up during the abbreviated session we have this week and next week. and among those four bills are two he acknowledges are clearly only introduced for the political impact. for the message. they might deliver. One bill that is being promoted by the junior Senator from Pennsylvania is a bill relating to sanctuary cities. This measure was largely considered and voted on only 8 months ago and defeated in the Senate. Why are we bringing it back today?
