So you
can twist words and twist facts any way you want, but the truth is,
this is a purely partisan effort--a purely partisan effort--and that is
what leads to the trouble in this place. Let me say a few more things. Despite the leader being totally partisan on this issue, we have seen
some rays, some sprouts of bipartisanship. In the House, Republican
Congressman Will Hurd and Democratic Congressman Aguilar have a
proposal on immigration, on Dream, that garnered 20 Democrats and 20
Republicans. The Goodlatte proposal, the McCaul proposal, has not a
single Democrat. I say
to the Acting President pro tempore, you have made a proposal that, in
the words of Lindsey Graham, will not get a single Democratic vote.
