They also have the opportunity to get employment here in the United States and those that employ them do so because they work for iess and then they also work longer hours under adverse conditions. We are not going to be discussing that particular point now because the committee has already passed their socalled sanctions that are supposed to take care of that situation. But what the committee does not have is the mechanism that will make it possible for those of us in this Congress and in the United States of America to study the situation. the problems that they have. and to make recommendations with regard to. immigration in this hemisphere and. secondly. make recommendations regarding the means and ways of preventing the poverty and illiteracy that exists in those countries that are sending people to the United States. That can be done with this amendment. It is my proposal that the amendment would authorize the establishment of a 3year national Commission on Immigration that would be comprised of 15 members for. the purpose of recommending statutory and other changes to best deal with the unauthorized immigration to the United States occurring after the enactment of this bill. But it also does something else that is most important. This Commission will become an integral part of a group that will study and make recommendations of short- and longterm measures. promoting reciprocal trade and economic development programs of mutual benefit to the United States and to Latin American countries.
