|
But I'm thrilled to hear it! I didn't think that would get done!

| 3. That's the best news among a lot of good news |

with this lame duck session. I believe Jon Stewart and those who followed his lead need a lot of thanks for this.

There are a lot of Latinos who have legal status and little sympathy for that issue, think Puerto Rico, and all those who have been here already for over a hundred years. Anyway, this is what I've seen.
