Harry Reid: “Following leader remarks, if any, the Senate will resume consideration…”

On the recordJune 21, 2013

Following leader remarks, if any, the Senate will resume consideration of the immigration bill. Mr. President, we finished here late last night. We had a lot of issues that were unresolved then.
