Session #97 · 1981–83

Speech #970224213

Mr. President. in conclusion. let me say that there is no immediate mass deportation required by this amendment of mine which is pending. The crisis has been building for a decade and it may take a decade to wind it down. But If we set the precedent of amnesty once. we will be encouraging future millions of illegals to take a chance. Let me say to Senators that if this amendment. or something closely akin to it. is not adopted. Senators will rue the day that they allowed this bill to go through with amnesty for 6 million aliens. or is it 10 million. or 15?
