Mr. Speaker. because of my unceasing efforts and long and continuing interest in immigration and related problems. which are of utmost concern to the 14th Congressional District of New Jersey. and my constituency. I take the floor of the House of Representatives today in defense of S. 3361. which has only this morning obtained Senate approval. I have steadfastly worked to bring about this much needed amendment of our existing immigration law. The bill which is under consideration today is one in which I am vitally interested and wholeheartedly endorse. This bill is designed to facilitate the entry into the United States of certain skilled aliens. whose services are urgently needed. Before anyone could be considered for entry under this provision of the bill. the Attorney General must have approved the petition after a fully and complete investigation of the alien skilled specialist involved and after the Immigration and Naturalization Service has ascertained that the American petitioner has fully documented the need for that persons services. It is estimated that approximately 16.000 aliens will be admitted under this provision. if enacted into law. In addition. it will facilitate the entry into the United States of brothers and sisters. married sons and daughters and their respective families of American citizens.
