I say to this body that if one follows the gentlemans logic to its conclusion. one could have a district in the United States of Americain fact. we almost had one at one time in Key West. Fla.. where everybody who resided there would not be a citizen except the Member who happened to get elected from that congressional district. That is where the gentlemans logic takes us. I say to my colleagues this amendment should be adopted. We should adopt it now. and we can by a simple legislative act. frame the issue of whether illegal aliens were within the minds of our Founding Fathers. There are procedures to bring threejudge courts together hurriedly to hear constitutional arguments. We can have it done thoroughly. and we can have it done promptly.
