St. Paul. or somewhere. and take a look in the kitchen. You sense there are people in there who might possibly not be U.S. citizens. and you pull out your Senate badge and flash it like a law enforcement officer and say "Immigration." and people will start running for the doors. It is incredible how many people are in the country. and that is why I think the Senator from California is talking about. we are talking about literally. thousands of farmworkers who have become a part of our society now. and I do not see why we could not just get a card out there and then we would have them under control. and they would not be eligible for food stamps and all the transfer payment programs. There is a lot of merit in this. and I think it would make the bill more workable. get a card system or a guest workers system. because there is a guest worker system now working filegally. and it is not good the way it is.
