Other countries will be forced to respond to humanitarian calls for help. and not to leave the bulk of resettlement efforts to the United States. I am today introducing a resolution to accomplish this. This resolution sets a total immigration level for this year of 650.000. twice the statutory level of our immigration preference system. Thus. we can accept refugees and immigrants of all types. But we must have that limit and we must stick to it. The resolution would direct the President to submit to Congress a yearly total immigration goal for the United States. The goal can change from year to year to reflect our economic and employment needs. and to respond to humanitarian crises. But the goal must be set.
