Speaker. I would like to draw my colleagues attention to a recent editorial that appeared April 23 in my hometown paper. the Louisville Times. commenting on a recent Supreme Court decision. Immigration and Naturalization Service against Delgado. This decision upheld the legality of "factory sweeps" by the Immigration Service in which immigration officers sweep through places of employment asking for immigration documents. Many undocumented aliens are apprehended through this method. The Louisville Times editorial correctly points out that while such searches may have a place in immigration law enforcement. the effort lacks balance so long as the employerwho often exploits the undocumented workergoes scotfree. Mr. Speaker. that the employer is not now a player in this drama makes no sense.
