I trust that none of us minimizes either the complexity or the significance of the pending legislation. No piece of legislation which has been before us this year. or In any year in which I have been a Member of the Senate. has been so intricate. so involved. or so pregnant with dangerous potentialities. The subject matter is Immigration. but the pending legislation involves far more than immigration. It poses the question of our basic national philosophy. and of our social philosophy. it involves the thorny problem of the racial discrimination imbedded in our Immigration laws. It raises basic questions of law. of justice. and of civil liberties.
