Mr. President. I wish to emphasize again there has been some questions about figures and this is of course one of the difficult things we have to deal with in all of the immigration problems. The administration of our laws is so slipshod and haphazard it is very difficult to get accurate figures. The figures we have from the State Department and from the Department of Justice indicate that about 550.000 have immigrated up to this pointin the fiscal year of 1980. So we are dealing with a cushion for 3 months of 100.000 if this resolution is passed. Let me respond just briefly to the very eloquent and compassionate statement made by the distinguished Senator from Missouri.
