These people are not criminals. the resolution does not propose to grant any consideration to anyone guilty of moral turpitude. We are trying to stay the hand of the law temporarily to save the families of 2.600 or more who are technical violators. Many of these came in legitimately. established homes. married American citizens. raised families of American children. in many cases learned on applying for citizenship that the record was not clear or jumbled by inefficient or thoughtless clerks in the Immigration Service. They are not at fault. but still they are helpless. Families must now be torn apart. men. women. and children driven to despair.
