Mr. President. I wish to dwell on the language of the proposed amendment. which reads In part as follows: (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this act. the Board of Immigration Appeals shall have jurisdiction and authority to review. upon appeal by an alien or by the Attorney General. any decision of the Attorney General. of the Commissioner. or of any officer or employee of the Service in proceedings relating to exclusion. deportation. petitions and applications for determination or adjustment of status. applications for suspension of deportation. applications for waivers of grounds of exclusion or deportation. stays. and revocation of status previously granted. In short. would not the amendment set up within the Department of Justice. under the Attorney General. a creature capable of destroying the head of that Department or. at least. of setting aside his actions in the case of both administrative and judicial functions?
