As I understand. the bill as it passed the House provided for a moving or sliding formula. that is. if hemispheric immigration exceeded by more than 10 percent the mean of the previous 5 years. it would be the responsibility of the President to report to Congress with recommendations. if any. Does the Senator from New York feel that this kind of provision along with the other provisions in the proposed legislation. such as the tightening of the labor restrictions and the health and the public charge provisions. would have served us well in seeing that there would not be a wave of individuals who would come to the United States from the Western Hemisphere countries?
