They would not under thisthey would not under this. The problem is that the educational problem did not fit. Every time we had a refugee act here. I got up and spoke. I said. "You are helping the refugee. fineI will go along with that. but we have another category that does not fit in." And again I would like to emphasize to my colleagues that. no. it is not related to whether our immigration system is working or not working. the illegals are coming or the illegals are not coming. The basic problem is that the flow of legitimate. legal immigrants has been such in the postwar years that it has added to the burden of the local school districts. Many of them cannotunder the State on local financing. are unable to provide for it.
