I should like to have the chairman of the Judiciary Committee tell me why the fourth amendment should be. for all practical purposes. invalidated. The fourth amendment provides that the Congress shall pass no law abridging certain rights. One of those rights is that there shall be no search or seizure without a warrant. Yet under the terms of the pending bill search and seizure without a warrant are permitted if there is reason to believe that an illegal entrant or an undesirable alien is being harbored in a vehicle or conveyance. I think that is going pretty far. Those are some of the reasons why we have insisted that this measure be recommitted.
