Mr. President. my third amendment would terminate the increased 50.000 per year refugee quota after 3 years leaving only the scecial admission urocedures under the remainder of the bill. There has been a great deal of discussion and controversy about the need and wisdom of increasing the total U.S. yearly immigration quota in this manner. I am one of thoge who believe that we do not have sufficient information to make this determination at this time. Further. I believe that it would undermine the responsibility of the Select Commission on Immigration and Refugee Policy in its effort to make constructive recommendations on refugee numerical limitations. However. there are others who hold strongly to the contrary view. In an effort to deal constructively with this issue.
