Speech #890120987

Mr. Chairman. the nine people in this body who know the problem with which we are confronted best are the six Democrats and the three Republicans who populate the Subcommittee on Immigration and Nationality. In the subcommittee deliberations five members. constituting a bipartisan majority. voted for the MacGregor amendment. That. I suggest. is the best possible evidence of the merit of the MacGregor amendment. I pay special tribute to the distinguished gentleman from Kentucky who made what I regard as a courageous dissertation on the floor of this House. and I must express my admiration for the candor of the chairman of the subcommittee. the distinguished gentleman from Ohio . who referred to a wealth of objective evidence which reflects a need for a Western Hemisphere ceiling.
