I am grateful for those insights that we had from our friend and colleague, the distinguished senior Senator from Wisconsin. You know, when the senior Senator from Alabama joined the United States Senate, it was a pleasure to get to know him. It has been a pleasure to work with him ever since. In fact, I visited our southern border within a few months after he arrived here. I noticed in him a distinct concern not only for the welfare of the residents of the State of Alabama and all other Americans but also a genuine concern for those who have been human-trafficked into our country by the drug cartels, with the tacit acquiescence and even the affirmative blessing of this administration. I, for one, am glad that Senator Tuberville was not the head coach at the University of Miami when their football team played BYU in the late summer of 1990. Had he been, that game might have turned out differently. But I would love to get his thoughts on this matter.

Mr. President, we just heard the astounding claim that it would be a waste of time to allow individual Senators to come here and do what they were elected to do, which is to offer improvements to pending legislation. We are not a…
