“Every speaker who has risen in opposition of the bill has endorsed every provision in the bill, and so they would vote for it except for concerns of theirs. Every speaker on the bill 2/2 hours ago sat with me in a hearing before presidents of historically black colleges and minority and poor institutions who talked about the bureaucratic, technical and monetary impediments to deserving students getting a college education, 400,000 this year in America. We should subordinate our political interests to the better interests of Americans trying to better their lives. If, in fact, there is no objection to a provision in the bill, we should vote for the recipients and the beneficiaries of student aid and improve their lives, not for our parochial or our political interests.”
