I guess I know a little more about it than most without actually having been born of another nationality. Some of my colleagues may not know it. but my wife is a Korean national who has come to country by virtue of her marriage to me. She is now a proud citizen of this country by virtue of naturalization. My motherinlaw and fatherinlaw and other relatives in our extended family are here by virtue of the quota system and a system of legalized immigration and naturalization. Because of that unique circumstance. I say to my colleagues. simply by virtue of being sort of a country lawyer from the flatlands back in Omaha. Nebr.. it became known to others of different origins that there was an attorney in Omaha. Nebr.. who had a wife of another nationality and perhaps he could help us with our problem. So I ended up becoming a specialist in this field of immigration law. I have practiced that law and I have experienced firsthand the dilemmas that are faced by those who are here legally and illegally. I know the emotion that. for example. my friend from Maryland and. for example. my friend from New York are trying to express in their colloquies with us on this very amendment.
