If the gentleman will recall. when we passed this bill in committee I think there was some language somewhere used that we were going to allocate about $600 million a year to carry out this immigration bill. $600 million each 3 years. 1984. whatever. This amendment that I am speaking of nowand I have heard the cost of $100 million mentioned this afternoon and $300 million for 3 years. There is absolutely no basis that I can find for that. The information that I have been able to receive indicates that the first year cost would be about $35 or $40 million. That would be an amount that is substantially less for enforcement than is now built into this bill.
