Mr. President. S. 2222 provides for the control of future illegal immigration and channels the current population of undocumented aliens into legal status. It would be counter to the intent of this legislation to begin authorizing Federal funds for services for illegal immigrants. We sincerely believe that future illegal immigration will be drastically curtailed through the adoption of employer sanctions. and we have provided for block grants to meet the basic subsistence programs provided to legalized aliens by States and counties. Mr. President. the amendment is outside the basic thrust of S. 2222 by providing services rather than focusing control.
