Mr. President. I rise to support S. 2792. a bill to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act. I am a cosponsor of this bill. but I am frank to say that it does not measure up to all my hopes. It does not measure up to the aspirations of those who. in season and out of season. have believed in. and fought for. immigration laws liberal enough to represent the responsibility of America. I believe that the moral leadership and economic standards of our country permit of something much better. and should produce something better. But this measure. although only a mild and moderate step forward. is an affirmative step.
