Skepticism. that is healthy. is another. And indeed. my colleagues. that is important. But to raise doubt as we examine the very fundamental thing that we are trying to do. which is to provide the least discriminatory vehicle for addressing our immigration problems. is the wrong way to proceed on this particular amendment. It is for that reason that I urge my colleagues to remember the following ideas: That for slope of chin or cheekbone. that for color of skin or slant of eye. or sound of voice. those considerations by the subcommittee who brings this bill to us today have been so carefully considered. the language so carefully constructed. that there can be no doubt and I would not come to my colleagues and ask them to consider opposing this amendment if I felt in any way that the dangers suggested by some who support this amendment would indeed come to pass.
