The Senate passed an amended version your bill, so ya guys need to pass it again. I will open the vote now, which will last 72 hours or until all members have voted.

The application fee and fines for undocumented immigrants in section 1 and also the visa auction system go toward funding most of the rest of the things in the bill.  That's what section 6 is about.  It depends on how many people take advantage of those programs, how much revenue is raised, but I'd anticipate it being more than enough.

The bill is satisfactory.

I think this is a common-sense and remarkably well-drafted bill, which adequately addresses the concerns of both sides in the immigration debate. I will enthusiastically support it when it comes to a vote.

I guess I wasn't very clear. Tongue

The vote started when this thread was opened, meaning you guys should be voting now.

This passes 8-1 and moves on to the President for his signature or veto.
