I did not vote for the immigration bill. and very likely will not vote for the conference report. On a matter that is vital I do not see why the House should not express its will now. but when it comes to verbiage it ought to be left to the conferees. The Senate amendment and the House provision are largely matters of verbiage and the effect of that verbiage. I am quite sure after reading. I do not understand. or as to what would be covered differently by the two propositions. It seems to me the part of wisdom on a matter of this sort is to leave it to the conferees. who. while they do not agree with me on the question. must certainly have the confidence and the support of a majority of the House.
