Certainly. I do not see how anybody will vote against this amendment. though there may be some who will. I want to say to my distinguished colleague I have been very much troubled about these illegal aliens who come into this country and take American jobs. I think they are people not only doing the wrong thing. but they are being exploited by American industry. There is no question at all about it. I think many of our businessmen are looking for cheap workers. Just because they know they are illegal aliens. they can buy them and use them at some insignificant amount. and take advantage of them. which. to me. is very inhumane. There is a bill pending in the Judiciary Committee that makes it a crime for an employer to engage someone knowing that he is an illegal alien. We are appropriating the part of the bill that comes into my charge and it is in here now. We are appropriating $175 million to do something about illegal entry into this country.
