00:00 >> This bill is on the floor because their poll numbers are showing them that after months and
00:07 months of throwing the border open to anyone who wants to come in,
00:13 that the public doesn't like the policy.
00:17 So with five months left to go till the presidential election,
00:23 this cynical attempt to bring legislation to the floor,
00:28 to address an issue that they themselves created,
00:33 exacerbated, and turned into a self-inflicted policy gunshot wound.
00:41 Now they want legislation to pass.
00:46 This is cynical, it's a sham.
00:48 They have let 20 times the population of my state
00:55 come into this country illegally, 20 times the population of Wyoming,
01:02 into this country illegally, and now they bring a piece of legislation.
01:08 This is cynical, and we need to shut it down.
