Mr. President. with continued high unemployment. we cannot afford to give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. Those illegal aliens in the lowest paying jobs would be free to compete with Americans for good jobs. Those illegal immigrants already in good Jobs could keep them. Is that fair to almost 11 million unemployed Americans? The American Legion thinks not. I agree. Mr. Paul Egan. deputy director of the National Legislative Commission of the American Legion. expressed the position of our Nations largest veterans organization in a letter published today in the Washington Times. I ask that his letter be printed in the RECORD.
