Mr. Speaker. the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service has of late been engaging in dragnet raids in which anyone with dark skin. or a foreign accent. or unusual dress is subject to detention if he is unable to prove that he is either a citizen or a legal alien. I have spoken out against this tactic as yet another attack by the Nixon administration on the fundamental rights of all people. and I am pleased to note that the prestigious Association of the Bar of the City of New York has joined me in opposing the behavior of the Service. The March 1973 number of the record of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York includes a report setting forth the position of the association.
