Speech #980140226

Mr. Speaker. I am very concerned that the House of Representatives is being denied the opportunity to debate and consider the Immigration Reform and Control Act. Since the decision was made to suspend a vote on the bill. the message of the public has been loud and clear in opposing such inaction. This country critically needs reform of its immigration policy. and I believe that Congress had the obligation to provide a solution to address this national problem. Four committees have reported legislation designed to restore order to our immigration laws. This legislation is the product of many months of studies and deliberations by special Commissions and Members of Congress. The Senate has twice addressed and approved legislation addressing this issue.
