There is no question that it is controversial. it is emotional. it is complex. But it is a matter that we must deal with now. Some may say now is not the time. that this matter is too incendiary to be considered during an election year. I recall 12 years ago when the House wisely acted and did adopt employer sanctions legislation in order to address the problem of a continuing inflow of undocumented aliens. At that time the other body failed to act. They felt it was not the "right time." As a result. we have a problem which has been festering for years.
