I agreed with the principle of the Labor Departments ruling namely. that foreign citizens should not be allowed to continue to stay if there exists a surplus of qualified teachers in the United States. But. I was also concerned that the educational process of these elementary students would be harmed and that the special relationship and rapport. which everyone said existed between that teacher and her class. would be sacrificed to the detriment of the elementary children. I pleaded with the Labor Department to extend the foreign teachers deportation. The Department. however. did not agree and I was forced to introduce legislation allowing the teacher to remain. The teacher thus was able to complete the school year and the education process of the students was uninterrupted.
