Speech #CREC-2017-12-07-pt1-PgS7914_t0

The fact is, we have done precious little this year, and we have plenty of time. It is also a reality that a lot of people are watching carefully to see if we do our job. A long time ago, I started coming to the floor of the Senate, telling the story of these Dreamers--the stories of these people who are protected by DACA. I can give the greatest speech in the world, and people will yawn, but when I tell them the stories of these lives and these people, it changes the conversation. They come to understand who they are and why this is critically important.
