There are 120 million people. Madam President. between here and the Panama Canal. If that MarxistLeninist revolution expands into Mexico. anybody that stands here in this Congress that has any idea. or thinks we will not have huge refugee camps all along the border from Texas through Arizona and California. New Mexico. are Just simply ignoring reality. People are voting with their feet right now. not illegal aliens that come in to workundocumented workers I am speaking of nowbut people who are coming in to stay. to escape what they think is less of an opportunity for them to enjoy the fruits of their labors that they might get here in the United States. Madam President. I ask unanimous consent to add Senator HECHT. from Nevada. and Senator DAMATO of New York to the list of distinguished cosponsors of both my amendments.
