I know the gentleman from New York had to leave. He was one of the codrafters of this amendment. Many of us believe the time has come for the Congress to act like it wants to do something about the problem of illegal aliens. Simply stated. I believe we should start addressing this acute problem in every bill before us to make sure that taxpayers money does not go for any indirect economic support or direct economic support for people who are in the United States in violation of immigration and nationality laws. To the extent that we help them by these programs. we encourage the influx of other aliens. I would hope this amendment would pass.
