Speaker. in the past few- days. much has been said about a provision In the proposed act -which will permit the entryof 100 aliens annually into the United -States without regard toimmigration laws. I would like -to explain this provision carefully and fully. Section 8 of this bill provides that whenever the Director and the Attorney General shall determine that the entry of a particular alien into the United States for permanent residence is in the interest of national security or essential to the furtherance of the national intelligence mission. that alien and his family shall be given entry without regard to their admissibility under the immigration laws and regulations. The number of persons who can come into the country under this provision is limited to 100 persons in any one year. Let me emphasize that what is being waived are the laws regarding the admissibility of an alien into this country. but no laws are being waived regarding his conduct once he is here. The alien must live up to every law. of the United States just as every other alien must do. and failure to do so will lead to his deportation for cause. What is the purpose of this section? Briefly. it is this.
