Pete Domenici: “I have concluded there are not very many Senators who want to openly defy and break that and cause Mexico to say we can…”

On the recordJuly 26, 2001
I have concluded there are not very many Senators who want to openly defy and break that and cause Mexico to say we can now have repercussions on commodities that America is selling to Mexico by imposing duties.

That is very simple. That is what we ought to try to do.
