Harry Reid: “H-1B. We should revisit this issue. If the Senator wants to reintroduce his unanimous consent request tomorrow, fine.…”

“H-1B. We should revisit this issue. If the Senator wants to reintroduce his unanimous consent request tomorrow, fine. Let's see if we can come up with something that will meet the timeframe of what the majority leader wishes. As I have indicated, this is not my preference in doing business, but this legislation is very important, and I want to spread upon the Record the fact we are not trying to hold up this legislation. The minority wants to move forward, as Senator Daschle indicated today. If the Senator persists in his unanimous consent request, I will object. I hope the Senator will withdraw that and see if in the next 24 hours we can work something out on this important legislation.”
