I do not know how you are going to vote on this bill. but at least I ask you to be considerate and give me an opportunity to say a few words to you regarding this legislation. In the first place. this is not a proper exclusion or a suspension bill to relieve unemployment. This bill. if passed today and signed tomorrow. will not help any American to get one single job. The bill is nothing but a fraud on the American Congress concocted by a few members of my committee to present an opportunity to say that it is going to suspend 90 per cent of the immigration when. as a matter of fact. the State Department has suspended over 93 per cent of the immigration for the last six months.
