Mr. President. first I wish to commend my friend from Colorado and associate myself with his remarks. As our friend. the chairman of the Subcommittee on Immigration. knows. I have been concerned about the possibility that employer sanctions will result in discrimination against legal aliens and American citizens. I entered into a brief colloquy with the chairman and the majority leader on Tuesday evening in which they agreed that the issue of discrimination is an important part of the issue of immigration reform and that the issue should be addressed by the Senate before the conference on any immigration bill begins. Those of us who are concerned about this issue had requested that a hearing be held on employer discrimination. The chairman has agreed to hold a joint hearing with the House on the issue of employment discrimination.
