It is my desire to allow the Congress to maintain its traditional and rightful jurisdiction in this field. My legislation offers the Congress an opportunity to review the administrative action when the parolee seeks to acquire permanent residence. It has also been charged that the PresIdents recommendations for pooling unused quota numbers would produce an increase of 60.000 immigrants annually. This allegation is not necessarily correct. There is no guaranty that unused quota numbers would be exhausted. If. as now. the Congress has permitted the issuance of over 154.000 visas and perhaps 70.000 are unused each year. I submit that it is incorrect to suggest that the use of these unused quota numbers constitutes an increase in the quota. My bill merely provides a way by which unused quota numbers can be utilized. but it does not increase their number in this respect.
