President. the President was gracious enough to call on me for some remarks at the White House that morning. I saluted him for the political courage he demonstrated in holding such a meeting and in urging the Congress to respond favorably. Not only is there no political "mileage" to this question. but it could also be politically damaging. It is to the great credit of the President of the United States that he "steps up and swings". and I hope the Congress will respond. I ask unanimous consent that my statement at the opening of the hearing before the Senate Subcommittee on Immigration. which followed the White House meeting. be printed in the RECORD.
