Mr. President. at a time when U.S. immigration is in a state of chaos. it is imperative that Congress select its leaders on this issue from those who have the wisdom and strength to make some extremely difficult but necessary decisions. I believe that the Senate Judiciary Committee has found such a person by its selection of Senator ALAN SIMPSON. the distinguished Senator from Wyoming. as the chairman of the new Immigration Subcommittee. Because of his tireless service to the Select Commission on Immigration and Refugee Policy. Senator SIMPsON has a wealth of knowledge and information on immigration problems from which to draw. By combining this with his deep personal concern for the immigration problems which face the United States. I am confident that he will help fashion a new immigration law which is compassionate for prospective emigrants and which is designed to assure that immigration policy will represent the best interests of this country. In a "straight talking" interview with a reporter from the Los Angeles Times. Senator SIMPSON demonstrated that he will be a fair and forceful figure in the immigration debate. The fight to reshape our immigration laws will not be an easy one but I assure the distinguished Senator that I will do everything in my power to assist him in his efforts. I ask that the article from the Los Angeles Times be printed in the RECORD.
