That would be a way. but I want to make it clear that I am not opposed to the Immigration and Naturalization Service enforcing the law. I live 220 miles from the border. My district is not affected by any enforcement program. I hesitated to speak on this for fear someone might think that I was being influenced by the fact that the Immigration laws affect the border of my State. but I believe in the enforcement of the law. I am in favor of its fair enforcement against all violations in favor of a fair application of the law to all people who are affected rather than making special exceptions as. these bills seek to accomplish.
