I thank the Senator for yielding. If I recall correctly. the statistics indicate that somewhere between 8 and 15 percent of all illegal aliens in the United States are employed in agriculture. But if I remember the deportation figure. the deportations of illegal aliens will exceed 1 million a year. Of that. over 900.000 are from agricultural labor. I would not suggest at all that that means a million illegal aliens have been deported. because I think many of them are the same people imported more than once. In Idaho. we figure the turnaround time is about 4 days. If they are really determined when they get back to Mexico. they are back up to Idaho within 4 days. Then it takes INS a while to locate them again. The same person may be deported more than once in a year. But let me ask the Senator from Wyoming. am I right on those general figures of the number of illegal aliens and the number of deportations. and where do those deportations originate?
