They have not the administrative force. The Appropriations Committee has not given them enough money. and it is a slow process. Only a few weeks ago I appealed to this Congress to legalize people who are here illegally up to 1924. which was the proper time. because 1924 was the basic and permanent policy of the immigration law of the United States. and there is no reason why we should not legalize people up to 1924. because under the statute of limitations five years have expired. and you can not put them out. So why not turn around and find out who is with us and who is against us? That is the only way you will have contentment in this country.
