Mr. Chairman. t while this bill is being processed under a the abnormal pressures of world refugee tI complications caused by the Communist S atrocities in Cambodia and the tragic R situation of the Vietnamese boat people. c at the same time we have people fleeing m harsh government rule in Haiti and Jamaica. the continued flow of people from Eastern Europe and an overall increase in world refugee problems. In addition. we face a monumental problem in the United States of illegal immigrants. I believe that this bill. even with its controversial provisions. is an Improvement on the hodgepodge combination of laws. regulations. and administrative parole decisions that have been the pattern over the years. While I do not think this bill is the solution to many of the longterm problems.
