Mr. President. this subcommittee is one of the hardest working subcommittees in the Senate. It has a caseload of private immigration bills which is constantly increasing. In the first session of this Congress approximately 2.000 bills of that character were introduced in the Senate. The committee must make an investigation of each case. In addition. there are 6.269 cases of immigrants who are entitled to an adjustment of status. Furthermore. the President of the United States has requested that the basic immigration law be rewritten. The subcommittee will have to hold hearings on that subject. The $102.000 requested is $9.272 less than the amount asked for last year.
