Chairman. I have listened to this debate with great interest. I am not a member of the committee. and I am of course. not a member of the subcommittee. However. it has become quite apparent to me during this debate that the bill is temporary legislation which is designed to correct an inequity. The Immigration and Nationality Act was amended in 1965. At that time it was not supposed to adversely affect any country. During the transition period from the concept of national origins to firstcome firstserved the backlog of each country was supposed to be absorbed into this country.
