Speech #970225267

As I say. I do agree with many parts of this amendment. I am concerned that it does not. in fact. put a ceiling on immigration. The only way to do that. in my judgment. is to have one overall cap. This does restore to the Congress. however. some limited authority in order to deal with the executive branch in trying to develop a rational program and rational figures. From that standpoint. I will support the Senators amendment. I would hope that he might amend that figure back to the level which is in the present bill of 50.000. but. nevertheless.
