You appreciate each other, you
grant each other your positions on issues, and you understand the art
of negotiating in a successful way. There were some items that were suggested other than from the
committee. From the White House, for example, a border wall,
deportation force, things like that, 160 poison pills, which were
ranging from undermining a woman's right to choose to dismantling Dodd-
Frank, et cetera. But you all worked together to balance the equities
and come up with a bill that will have, I believe, broad support in the
Congress, certainly bipartisan support in the Congress. But just not to speak about what we didn't like about the bill, there
are some very positive aspects of it that I want to recognize--some
nondefense increases in spending, which will save lives and create
jobs.
