I thank the gentleman for yielding this time to me. Mr. Speaker. as a member of the Subcommittee on Immigration and a supporter of legislation to help regain control over our borders. I rise in support of this rule. If we are to regain control over our borders. we must pass an immigration reform bill. Some of us. myself included. are not pleased with every provision of this bill. but that would not excuse the House refusing to consider and pass a strong and effective bill. The Committee on the Judiciary reported H.R. 1510 on May 13. 1983. Opponents of the bill. therefore. have had at least 13 months in this Congress to prepare amendments to it.
