Irony

Immigration Bill Filibustered

Irony of all ironies. An immigration bill, important to business, was offered on the Senate floor yesterday as an amendment to a larger bill. A handful of GOP Senators have blocked the amendment, threatening a filibuster and forcing a cloture vote.

The bill is supported by a large coalition of business interests, including my office, but heaven forbid we should let in more Mexicans, even if they are legal, hard working and needed.
