Chairman. I rise in opposition to the pro forna amendment. There is one good thing the bill does. and that is that some Mexicans who have come into the United States unlawfully within the last five years may be deported if the department can get enough money to apprehend them. But how about those who came in six. seven. or eight years ago? There were thousands that came across the border unlawfully. You can go up and down the Mexican border in Texas for 10 and 15 miles and you will not see a house. and sometimes you will not see an immigration agent for 40 miles. They can wade across the river in lots of places. They come into Texas by hordes all of the time.
