Mr. Speaker. I have introduced today a new version of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1982. This bill is identical in all respects to the bill reported after full and complete deliberation by the Committee on the Judiciary except one. In order to avoid what would be a technical violation of the Budget Act. I have added language to the bill which makes the salaries of the Immigration Board subject to available appropriations. This bill is identical in all other respects to the version which the committee ordered reported. I intend to ask the Rules Committee to make this bill in order so as to avoid a potential problem under the Budget Act.
