TITLE X. The Emergency interdiction Act. The history Of America has been -in large part the history of immigrants. Our nation has been overwhelmingly enriched by the fifty million immigrants who have come here since the first colonists. For nearly our first century and onehalf as a nation. the Congress recognized our need for new arrivals by imposing no quantitative restrictions on immigration. Since 1921. however. the government and our people have recognized the need to control the numbers of immigrants and the process by which they enter our country. In recent years our policies. intended to effect that necessary control of our borders. have failed. Last year. the number of immigrants legally and illegally entering the United States reached a total greater than any year in our history. including the era of unrestricted immigration. This bill represents a comprehensive and integrated approach to inmigration. This legislation is premised upon the fact that there are between three and six million illegal aliens in this country and their numbers are continuing to grow from onequarter to onehalf million each year. Something must be done. The following titles of this bill are designed to curtail illegal Immigration: TITLE I. Temporary Resident Status for Illegal Aliens. TTLE IT. Unlawful Employment of Aliens Act of 1981.
