Speech #970222883

Mr. Speaker. I continue to be gratified by the strong support for the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1982. H.R. 6514. which has come from leading newspapers of the Nation. Earlier this week. the New York Times. in its usual straightforward fashion. argued for prompt action on the immigration bill in the other body and in the House. The editorial correctly pointed out that the bill maintains today a fair balance. but that balance and symmetry can be lost if unnecessary and inappropriate amendments are attached to it. I certainly appreciate and welcome suggestions from my colleagues for amendments to H.R. 6514. which was reported unanimously by my subcommittee on May 19 and which will soon be considered by the full Judiciary Committee.
