step up and stand behind these Dreamers. The moment is about to arrive. Senator Lindsey Graham, my Republican
cosponsor of the bill, said that a moment of reckoning is coming. He is

in the Congress and in the White House. It is a reflection on our view
of America as a nation--a nation of immigrants that has embraced
diversity and become all the stronger because of it. I yield the floor. I suggest the absence of a quorum.
