I voted to override the Presidential veto. I have since resisted any substantial changes in that act. and I am not now willing to vote for all the changes proposed. I would be willing. as I said earlier. to suspend our immigration laws for. say. 5 years. I know that Congress is unwilling to take such a step in the light of the hearings had on the pending bill and expressions heretofore made by Members of Congress. I applaud the action taken by the Committee on the Judiciary in limiting immigration from the countries in the Western Hemisphere. but I cannot see my way clear to supporting the pending measure. and I shall vote against it.
