This is a crisis that requires swift
passage of legislation to fix it, as big a priority as anything else we
need to pass this month. Our votes are needed on the debt ceiling,
Democrats, and on this bill and on the CR. What are we getting for our
votes, Democrats? When the CEO of Microsoft says that you can only take my DREAMers
with DACA by coming first through me, that is a challenge to every
policymaker in this Chamber and especially to my Democratic colleagues. When will we throw down and say: No, you cannot have our votes unless
you give us the DREAM Act? When, Democrats?
