Speech #760138836

Mr. President. in order to make the pending bill at the very least consonant with existing law. I believe we ought to amend section 2 by striking out the indeterminate period governing deportation. and insert in lieu thereof "within 5 years." so that the date of entry begins to toll and consequently to affect the deportable status of any alien so to be convicted as a violator of the Narcotics Act. I also believe we could and should strike from the bill completely the section which would remove automatically. as deportable. aliens who are institutionalized because they have become addicts of narcotics. I believe the amendment should prevail. and submit it to the Senate.
