That is the objective of the Amendment I am offering today. Mr. President. the history of immigration legislation in recent decades has been that once a law is enacted. Congress does not act again on immigration for many years. To assure that Congress will not ignore any discrimination that results from employer sanctions. I offered an amendment in committeewhich I am offering nowthat provides a crucial safeguard in the law. namely. that employer sanctions will end after 3 years unless the President certifies in a comprehensive report to the Judiciary Committees of Congress that employer sanctions "have been carried out satifactorily and have not resulted in a pattern of discrimination against United States citizens or other eligible workers seeking employment." If the President cannot give this certification after 3 years. then employer sanctions ought to be terminated.
