Speech #970274882

I would like to suggest that our disenchantment with this legislation mirrors the position of our constituencies. Our people. our business leaders. labor organizations. civil rights spokespersons. State and local government authorities. and minority groups all have something to say about this Immigration Reform Act. Allow me to cite just a few examples of those from whom I have heard. those who have taken time to write. call and meet with me to talk about this bill. First. my country board of supervisors. mayors of cities in my congressional district. and about 1.000 Just plain residents or ordinary people have written me in opposition to this bill.
