Geesh. Let the bills come to the floor, debate them, then vote on them. Filibustering being able to vote on the bill, one Senator preventing all from addressing a topic with their vote, is simply obstructionist, unconstitutional BS on the part of the GOP (yeah, that's opinion
Quote:
WASHINGTON -- The Dream Act, a bill that would allow some undocumented young people to gain legal status, narrowly passed the House Wednesday evening, 216-198.
The bill's passage by the lower chamber was applauded by President Barack Obama, who called it "an important step" toward comprehensive immigration reform.
But the fight isn't over -- the Senate's version of the bill is set to come up for a vote tomorrow and faces a steep climb to get past a cloture vote.
