Mr. President. Attorney General William French Smith testified last year on the immigration crisis. He accurately summed up the problem where he declared: "We have lost control of our borders." The National Commander of the American Legion in a letter to Members of the Senate on July 28 clearly described our predicament. He wrote: This Nation stands virtually alone among Western nations in having failed even minimally to exercise its sovereign rights to police its own borders. The American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars are among those who oppose amnesty for illegal aliens. Their opposition reflects massive public concern over our present immigration crisis. How many illegal aliens are here today? While it is impossible to calculate exactly. estimates range from some 3.5 million to over 10 million. Some estimates run as high as 15 million.
