I am inserting into the RECORD a copy of my testimony on H.R. 1510. the SimpsonMazzoll bill. before the House Rules Committee on April 12. 1984. It is my hope that when the committee completes its deliberations it will conclude that because of the serious flaws contained in H.R. 1510. it will not be granted a rule at this time. The testimony follows: Im testifying here as one who has strong objections to the SimpsonMazzoli immigration legislation. and to express my view that it would be a serious mistake to grant it a rule. We all understand that a serious problem existsour borders can be transgressed almost at will. the presence of an undocumented workforce has depressing effects on the job market for domestic workers. and it creates undesirable social conditions. I have tremendous respect for Chairman Mazzoli and others who have attempted to deal with this problem. and believe that one day their efforts will pay off in the form of a more progressive piece of legislation that will earn the support of many of us who are opposed to H.R. 1510. However.
