Mr. Speaker. since this discussion began today by Members of the Republican side to point out the failure of your leadership of this House and the arrogance of power which you have undertaken. over 250 illegal aliens have probably been caught. and many. many morepossibly thousandshave crossed our border. Since that resolution for discharge was filed with this House. over 100.000 illegal aliens have been been caught crossing our border. and possibly a million have come into our borders. You have to ask yourself: What level of irresponsibility can justify or can undertake to act so arbitrarily as to produce those results? Mr. Speaker. you have failed this House. you have failed the people of the United States. and it is time that you and your party recognize that the American people are not willing to stand here and take the abuse and the cost which those illegal aliens are putting upon us because you want to make a political issue out of it.
