Speech #980102758

This continuing resolution picks up on the Judiciary Committee passed bill this time for authoiozaton of this which ha never come before the floor of the House yet for debate. In that process we are adopting tonight changes which would do away with local bar control of Legal Services Corporation activities. We are adopting provisions which would allow Legal Services to go back into the lobbying business again. and we are opening the door for the 12 million or so illegal aliens here to be allowed to have the services of Legal Services lawyers and thereby spread the opportunity away from the poor people who this corporation was intended to serve. I only take the time to point this out because I think it is unfortunate that this is here without the opportunity which I understand why for debate or for elimination. and I urge the leadership to allow us as quickly as possible through the authorization process as appropriate to have the time to come back and revise this as indicated. Again.
