Speech #980211703

I heard the 95percent figure. That unfortunately is incorrect. We are talking about 95 percent of the employees being brought in. 50 percent of the employers being brought in. What we are trying to do is to say that this ought to cover everybody. If you think that what we ought to do is just to refine our law enforcement mechanism to those who have already been discovered to have hired illegals. then basically you are going to say we are going to go after agriculture and just a few other factories that are thrown in and the 85 percent of the employment of illegal aliens that goes on now largely undetected and largely unenforced again is going to go scotfree. and I do not think that is fair.
