Yes. As suggested by my colleague . we propose to force upon them our immigration laws without regard to whether it is to their interest to have such laws or not. We propose to put into the hands of the President of the United States legislative. judicial. and executive powers that he may present to the Cuban people a bill that is more onerous in its conditions than was the Platt amendment. against which every gentleman on this side of the Chamber voted. I can not favor such cant and hypocrisy. If the Republican majority in this House desire to pass this bill. let them be honest with themselves and the country.
