What is more important. many deserving cases each year go without relief simply because we cannot adequately handle problems of this sort. We should not be required to. We should certainly revise our general legislation. so as to make a single. comprehensible system of our immigration law. a system which does not act as a trap for the uninformed and a hunting ground for the predatory expert practitioner. and. above all. a system which dispenses evenhanded and enlightened justice. rather than discrimination and bitter heartbreak. Mr. President. I have said that I support and urge improvement in our existing immigration laws. But I feel strongly that the proposals of the Senator from Nevada are far from an -improvement. As I stated at the start. they are improperly restrictive. harmful to important domestic policies. and dangerous to our foreign relations.
