President. this amendment is a modest attempt to make the legalization provisions of this bill slightly more just. It adopts the language of the House Judiciary committee. It would provide to courts already reviewing a deportation order of an alien whose application for legalization has been denied the opportunity to examine the record of the legalization proceeding to determine whether there has been a gross abuse of administrative discretion or whether the facts as a whole are inconsistent with the findings of fact. To deny this very limited form of judicial review is to encourage the abuses it is designed to correct. My amendment will save otherwise eligible aliens from injustice.
