I dont want you to have the impression that I am unconcerned about the impact of these flows on our own country. our own communities. I will tell you that there are many officials and many members of the community in South Florida who are concerned. Our problem has been to deal with the realities of the situation. and these involve an extraordinarily emotional response on the part of the Miami Cuban community to the opportunity for longdeferred family reunification. On the other hand. this Government is not in a position to take a vacation from the responsibility of enforcing the law. What is required in the guidance that the Attorney General has issued is a general statement that we intend to enforce the law. the continuation of the application of the civil sanction. applicable under 1323 of the Criminal Code. applying a $1.000 fine for every undocumented alien brought back. Those citations continue to be issued. But I want to be quite clear with you that the enforcement process. in going beyond that to the question of seizure. question of arrest.
