The debate over enforcement in the bill is a great responsibility for each and every Member to reflect upon as we vote on this bill. The basis for enforcement in this bill is employer sanctions. I endorse this approach and have done so each of the previous two times the Senate has voted on immigration legislation. The lure that draws so many Illegals to the United States is clearly the hope of a job that can provide a source of income for them and their family. Employer sanctions makes it illegal for an employer to hire a person who Is in the United States illegally.
