Mr. Speaker. it would be most unfortunate if the 97th Congress adjourns without taking final action on the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1982. This measure. with which I have been personally involved for the last 2 years as well as during the preceding 2 years as a member of the Commission on Immigration and Refugee Policy. culminates the efforts of virtually every possible political. economic. and social interest in the Nation. If we are to regain control of our national borders and regulate the flow of immigrants and refur..es into our country. we must first establish the basic law upon which this control can be based. Mr. Speaker. a most illuminating article in support of the position which I am endeavoring to advance appeared in the Wednesday.
