Second. we are told that there is a good chance that the McCollum amendment striking the amnesty provisions of the bill will pass. thus gutting the heart of the bill. H.R. 1510 should not be brought up until passage of this key provision can be assumed. Defeating the rule on H.R. 1510 is a vote in favor of providing the very best solution to our very difficult immigration problem. a solution based on full consideration of viable and wellfounded options. I strongly support a legislative remedy to our immigration problems. but I can only support a remedy that has been considered against legitimate alternatives. and that is not the case with this bill. I urge my colleagues to vote against the rule.*
