The gentleman from New York [Mr. FIsHl stated the need to address this problem humanely. I think it is important to allow these people who are presently the undocumented workers and who have been the subject of abuse to be able to come up out of that shadow society and to now have the prospect. if they elect the legalization provision opportunity. to live a decent life and a dignified life. I know of individuals who have been living as a part of a shadow society. individuals whose children still are afraid to come forth and who still are afraid even to come out and register to vote because their parents are illegal. I think that the gentleman from Kentucky. under these trying conditions. has indeed done a good job.
